"A network of agents of the Zionist regime (Mossad) was dismantled and captured with a large shipment of weapons and ammunition after arriving at the western border crossings of the country," said the Director general of the Ministry of Intelligence in charge of counterintelligence.

"Mossad agents intended to use the equipment during riots in cities and villages and for assassination operations," he said, adding that " during the presidential elections, the Zionist regime also intended to carry out acts of sabotage in different parts of the country on several occasions, but this was doomed to failure.
