The Turkish intelligence agency arrested seven people today (Friday) on suspicion of selling information to the Mossad spy agency.
Turkey’s National Intelligence Organization (MET) arrested seven people in Istanbul and Izmir provinces on Friday for allegedly selling information to the Mossad spy agency.
Anatolia news agency quoted Turkish security sources as saying that Mossad monitored its targets through private workshops and collected information from people’s lives documented it through images and videos and monitored them.
During the investigation of the public prosecutor of Istanbul, nine people were cooperating with Mossad and selling information in this regard. Following this investigation, the office of the National Intelligence Organization of Turkey in Istanbul arrested seven people in a security operation in this province and Izmir province. Two others have already been arrested and are being interrogated.
The arrest of seven spies of the Zionist regime in Turkey is in a situation where relations between Ankara and Tel Aviv are tense following the war in Gaza, although the arrest of Mossad agents in Turkey has a history; In the latest case, on January 12, 33 people were arrested in eight provinces of Turkey on charges of espionage for the Mossad.
These defendants were involved in espionage for the Mossad, in actions such as identifying, monitoring, attacking, and kidnapping foreign nationals living in Turkey, and they were part of the “international espionage” operation.
But one of the biggest Turkish counter-espionage operations dates back to December 2022, when 68 Mossad spies were arrested in a large operation in 30 provinces of Turkey.
