🛰️ Israeli outlet Yedioth Ahronoth reported that documents published by the Mossad on June 13, 2025, during the opening phase of “Operation Rising Lion,” showed Iranian agents trained by Israel operating inside Iran rather than Israeli Mossad operatives.
The report said the agents underwent training in Israel, returned to civilian life in Iran, and waited to be activated. In spring 2025, a joint planning team from the Mossad and the Israeli Air Force allegedly tasked them with disabling an Iranian air defense facility to help secure Israeli air superiority over Tehran.
The agents were reportedly equipped through covert smuggling routes with drones, missiles, and operational gear. Final coordinates and deployment instructions were delivered shortly before the operation to reduce the risk of leaks.
Additional Mossad-linked cells were also reportedly activated that night, including agents involved in directing attacks against senior officials in the IRGC Air and Space Force and disrupting Iranian air defense and ballistic missile systems in Tehran and western Iran.
🔸 Both the American and Iranian sides continue issuing conflicting public statements regarding the proposed memorandum of understanding between Washington and Tehran.
Major unresolved disputes remain over control of the Strait of Hormuz, unfreezing Iranian assets, lifting U.S. sanctions, the fate of Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile, dismantling enrichment facilities, ballistic missile restrictions, and ending support for Iranian proxy groups.
The report stated that “virtually nothing has been agreed upon” and described the current gap between the sides as remaining extremely wide.
🔱 Yemen’s internationally recognized government announced the creation of a new naval force aimed at challenging Houthi control over the Red Sea and Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
The force is reportedly backed primarily by Saudi Arabia, with political support from the United States and other Western countries. Its stated mission includes securing shipping lanes, combating weapons smuggling, and restoring government authority along Yemen’s western coast and strategic islands.
The Houthis and Iran condemned the move and warned of escalation, including threats against maritime traffic if pressure on them increases.
For Israel, the development carries strategic importance because it directly challenges the Houthi maritime threat to Red Sea shipping routes and access to Eilat.
🛢️ Prime Minister Netanyahu said the global energy market is already adapting to instability in the Gulf region.
Netanyahu stated: “As a result of the oil crisis, the world diversified its energy sources. They found oil in new places and created new supply routes. That is what is going to happen here as well. I’m already telling you: they will begin searching for energy pipelines that move westward instead of through the Gulf. And we have an opportunity to be on that route to the Mediterranean.”
