Iran Executes Landmark Intelligence Operation, Obtains Vast Archive of Israeli Nuclear and Military Secrets
Iran's Intelligence Ministry has reportedly carried out the largest intelligence breach in history against the Israeli occupation entity, successfully extracting a vast cache of highly sensitive strategic documents and information from within occupied territories, according to sources cited by Iranian state media. #Iran's state TV, quoting regional sources, reported that Iran's intelligence apparatus has obtained & exfiltrated a significant archive of Israeli strategic & sensitive information, including nuclear plans & facilities, from #Israel. — Iran Nuances (@IranNuances) June 7, 2025 The operation included the transfer of thousands of classified files detailing the Israeli enemy's nuclear programs and other critical military projects. The scale and significance of the haul mark an unprecedented intelligence coup for Tehran. Seventeen days prior to this report, the Zionist internal security agency Shin Bet and police announced the arrest of two 24-year-old suspects from the northern city of Nitzhar—Roi Mizrahi and Almog Atiya—on suspicion of involvement in Iran-related security offenses. Authorities suggest these arrests may be connected to the intelligence breach. According to informed sources, the Iranian intelligence apparatus undertook this operation some time ago. The immense volume of documents necessitated extreme secrecy and logistical precision to ensure their safe transfer into Iran. Officials confirmed the successful delivery of the material to secure locations within the country. The sources noted the size of the document trove is so extensive that reviewing the files, images, and accompanying footage will require a considerable amount of time. This development highlights a major advancement in Iran's intelligence prowess against the Israeli enemy, reflecting Tehran's unwavering commitment to safeguarding regional security through enhanced covert operations.

Iran FM Warns E3 against 'Major Strategic Mistake'
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has warned France, Britain, and Germany against putting false accusations against Iran over its nuclear program, emphasizing that the Islamic Republic will respond firmly to any infringement on its rights. The top Iranian diplomat made the remarks on his X account Friday, as the three European countries, known as E3, are reportedly preparing to push the International Atomic Energy Agency's (I.A.E.A.) Board of Governors to declare Iran in breach of its non-proliferation obligations when the board holds its quarterly meeting next week. 'After years of good cooperation with the IAEA —resulting in a resolution which shut down malign claims of a 'possible military dimension' (PMD) to Iran's peaceful nuclear program— my country is once again accused of 'non-compliance',' Araghchi said in his post. After years of good cooperation with the IAEA—resulting in a resolution which shut down malign claims of a 'possible military dimension' (PMD) to Iran's peaceful nuclear program—my country is once again accused of 'non-compliance'.

When the E3 engaged in the same foul conduct back in 2005, the outcome in many ways was the true birth of uranium enrichment in Iran. Has the E3 truly learned nothing in the past two decades?' he added. 'Falsely accusing Iran of violating safeguards —based on shoddy and politicized reporting— is clearly designed to produce a crisis,' the Iranian FM warned. 'Mark my words as Europe ponders another major strategic mistake: Iran will react strongly against any violation of its rights. Blame lies solely and fully with irresponsible actors who stop at nothing to gain relevance,' he cautioned.
