Exciting news from Greece! Officials have just announced the capture of two Pakistanis who were allegedly planning to target Israelis in Athens. The officials went on to reveal that a "terrorist" network had also been taken down, stating that the group had already selected their target and were actively planning the attack.
The plot has been linked to Iran, with Israel claiming that Tehran was behind the attempt to promote terror against Israeli and Jewish targets abroad. In fact, Israel's national intelligence agency, the Mossad, reportedly helped uncover the network's intelligence and operational methods, as well as its ties to Iran.
