Summarized from The Times of Israel by baba

CenterNeutral tone

English · 6 newsrooms covering

Three Iran-backed operatives have been charged by the US Justice Department for orchestrating terror attacks against Jewish communities in the US and Europe, and a planned assault on the RAF Fairford airbase in the UK. The indictment names Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood al-Saadi, Mohsen Mohajeri, and Mohammad Ali al-Hassani, with al-Saadi currently in custody. The charges stem from alleged involvement in nearly 20 attacks and attempted attacks supporting Kataeb Hezbollah and Iran's IRGC. The alleged plots include a stabbing in London, a synagogue firebombing, and an attempted bombing of a New York synagogue, alongside the planned attack on the British airbase.
