Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Monitoring: The mission dismissed the Zionist regime’s allegation that Iran is hiring Iranians living in occupied territories for the assassination of Israeli officials.
It described Israel’s accusations as "unfounded".
The Iranian mission to the UN added that the Israeli regime’s claim is unlikely to be accurate from a logical standpoint because the natural course of suspicion in the view of the regime would first fall upon individuals of Iranian origin followed by Muslims.
Therefore, the Iranian mission noted, reason dictates that Iranian intelligence services would hypothetically choose non-Iranian and non-Muslim individuals to assassinate Israeli officials.
The statement from Israel’s internal intelligence service, Shin Bet, claimed Iran has stepped up efforts to take out Zionist officials in the occupied Palestine and that Tel Aviv has so far thwarted several attempts on the lives of those officials./Fars News
