Israel uncovers global Iranian terror network, with Azerbaijan plots foiled

Israel’s Mossad, Shin Bet and IDF jointly announced the exposure of a worldwide Iranian terror network run by the IRGC’s Unit 4000, with its top leaders killed earlier in the Israel‑US war against Iran; Azerbaijan said it foiled Iranian plots on its soil—including attacks on Israel’s embassy and a synagogue—and reported drone smuggling and intelligence gathering against targets abroad. The statement names operatives such as Rahman Moqadam, Majid Khademi, Mohsen Suri and Mahdi Yekeh‑Dehghan, and notes Iran‑backed plots against Israeli embassies since Oct 7, 2023. The disclosure could influence diplomacy with Iran and underscores Tehran’s global terror reach.
