Israeli security officials said on Wednesday the "war between the Shin Bet and Iran is escalating," with recent cases highlighting Iran’s relentless attempts to recruit and activate operatives inside Israel.
According to the officials, Iran has been broadly targeting diverse audiences through social media, with some individuals falling into the trap. "Those who choose to work for Iranian intelligence during wartime in exchange for money will pay a heavy price," officials warned.
The Shin Bet credited its efforts in preventing Tehran from achieving a symbolic victory, such as assassinating Israeli targets.
