Meanwhile, the Iraqi media reported that hundreds of Mossad agents had been deployed to northern Iraq. According to reports, the agents were tasked with the killing of the Iraqi scientists who were involved in the country's nuclear program under Saddam.
US investigative journalist Seymour Hersh had earlier reported that Israeli agents were based in Iraq's Kurdistan to gather intelligence on Iran's nuclear activities. According to Hersh, the agents who were disguised as businessmen had managed to infiltrate into Iran and Syria and install smart espionage gadgets inside the countries.
