Israeli intelligence accused Iran of attacking tankers in the UAE

2
The version of Iran’s involvement in the attacks on tankers in the port of the UAE, which was actively promoted by the United States, received the expected support from Israel. According to the Israeli foreign intelligence agency Mossad, it was Tehran that was behind the explosions of four tankers off the coast of the Emirates.





A representative of the Israeli Navy also made his comment, who described the attack on tankers as a “pretty impressive operation” of Iran and noted that the plan was to damage the ships themselves in Tehran, but not to harm the people on board.

In turn, the Israeli press writes that if both in the US and in Israel they started talking about Iran’s involvement in the attacks on tankers, then it is necessary to provide the public with comprehensive evidence as soon as possible, which would exclude any possibility of slandering Tehran.

By the way, another US regional ally in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia, which is a long-standing economic rival and ideological opponent of Iran, immediately declared the Iranian footprint in the attack on tankers.

Recall that on May 12, several explosions occurred in the port of the emirate of Fujairah (UAE), as a result of which 7 to 10 tankers located offshore caught fire. The UAE Foreign Ministry immediately appreciated the incident as a sabotage, and the UAE’s neighbor, Saudi Arabia, hastened to accuse Iran of it.

    Something reminds me of this ...
    The Gleiwitz radio station was attacked by irregular Polish troops, who managed to occupy the station for a few minutes. The irregulars were driven out of Germany by the border police. During the defense of the station, one Pole was mortally wounded. "

    on the night of August 31 / September 1, the customs station of the city of Hohlinden was attacked by Polish irregular troops, which also occupied it for a short time; but thanks to the counterattack of the SS troops, Polish formations were defeated

    etc. a few more times ...
    ... the day after the Second World War. Soon everyone found out that all these actions had been staged by German intelligence services, but the war was already underway and it was impossible to stop it ...
