New Mossad Chief Removes Two Senior Officials Over Failed Iran Operation
Roman Gofman, the new head of Mossad, has dismissed two senior officials from the agency, including the head of the intelligence directorate and the head of the Iran division. This decision, reported on Thursday evening by Channel 12 News, has caused significant upheaval within Mossad. The dismissals reportedly stem from the failure of a covert operation aimed at regime change in Iran. Notably, the operation was led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, along with the previous Mossad chief, David Barnea, and his deputy, who was then head of the Iran division and has since been removed from his post.
