Israeli PM's Office Denies Report of Planned Assassination on Iranian Negotiators
The Israeli Prime Minister's Office has categorically denied a New York Times report claiming that Israel planned to assassinate senior members of the Iranian delegation involved in nuclear negotiations with the United States. According to the report, U.S. officials believed Israel targeted Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf. The concern was that such an assassination could collapse the ongoing talks between Washington and Tehran. The United States reportedly asked regional countries to warn Iran about the potential threat. Israel declined to comment on the report.
