Iran’s Intelligence Ministry says it has dismantled four operative teams affiliated with the Israeli spy agency Mossad which were planning to carry out terrorist attacks in some parts of the country.

In a Thursday statement, the ministry said all members of the teams have been arrested.

It added that the criminal Zionist regime has sought to take advantage of the recent riots in Iran and lead operative teams to conduct "hybrid" terrorist operations in the country but all the terrorists have been arrested before any act.

The ministry noted that it has also obtained information about a Mossad ringleader in one European country, saying more details will be given immediately after the completion of investigation.

Iran’s Intelligence Ministry announced last week that it has identified and arrested members of a spy network who were planning to sabotage the country’s defense industry through front companies and security marketing.
