Israel’s spies infiltrated the heart of Iran’s missile and nuclear programmes to wage years of covert intelligence-gathering and assess that Tehran’s weapons-building infrastructure was far more extensive than previously thought.
Leaked intelligence documents shared with western allies, including the US and Britain, and seen by The Times, appeared to reveal the full extent of Iran’s nuclear and missile ambitions. The conclusion of Israel’s spy agency,
Mossad, as well as other military intelligence arms, was that the capability, knowledge and components of the regime’s development was racing ahead and it was far more extensive than just the main sites at Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan.
An intelligence source told The Times on Friday that Israel had been monitoring multiple locations through intelligence agents for years, with each location having “boots on the ground beforehand”. Israel began readying its attack on Iran from as early as 2010, based on intelligence about its accelerating weapons programme.
