He also revealed that foreign intelligence operations, including those from neutral and even friendly nations, had inadvertently supported Mossad and the CIA during recent escalations.

Iran Judiciary Chief: Israel Exaggerates Espionage to Undermine National Confidence

Iran’s Judiciary Chief, Hojjatoleslam Gholamhossein Mohseni Eje’i, has emphasized that the Israeli regime is intensifying efforts to exaggerate the scope of infiltration and influence within Iran far beyond the reality, in a bid to erode public confidence in national security.

Speaking on Tuesday during a visit to North Khorasan province, Eje’i stated:

“The enemy seeks to create the illusion that the security breaches suffered by Iran have been far greater than the actual damage endured.”

While acknowledging that no country’s security system is entirely immune to infiltration, Eje’i stressed that Iran’s security, intelligence, and armed forces have consistently and successfully neutralized all hostile intelligence efforts. These efforts, he noted, have come not only from the CIA and Mossad, but also from intelligence agencies of adversarial states—and, in some cases, from neutral or even allied nations.

He pointed out that the enemy had deployed highly advanced technology, vast resources, and extensive operational networks to conduct its missions.

Eje’i further disclosed that, amid the recent military escalation between Iran and Israel, even countries aligned with Iran had—perhaps unknowingly—assisted Western intelligence services such as the CIA and Mossad.

On June 13, Israel launched a large-scale, coordinated military operation targeting Iranian nuclear facilities and senior military leadership. This resulted in the assassination of several senior commanders, nuclear scientists, and numerous civilian casualties.

Following Israel’s attack, the United States also entered the conflict by striking three Iranian nuclear sites, marking a sharp and dangerous escalation in hostilities.

These strikes occurred during a delicate phase of indirect nuclear negotiations between Tehran and Washington. Up to that point, five rounds of talks had already been held concerning Iran’s peaceful nuclear program.

A sixth round of negotiations, scheduled to be held on June 15 in Muscat under Omani mediation, was abruptly canceled due to the Israeli and American military actions.
