Jerusalem – Ynet has revealed that Israeli ambassadors and diplomats are facing increasingly severe threats from Iran, prompting the Israeli government to provide them with “secret apartments” in order to ensure their safety.
According to a report by Ynet, since the start of the US-Israeli conflict with Iran, several Israeli diplomats have been forced to abandon their homes and take up temporary residence in secret apartments. In some cases, diplomats have had to leave the countries where they were posted altogether, citing concerns for their personal safety.
The Israeli government has introduced a series of strict security protocols for its diplomats, including providing them with safe houses and armored vehicles. However, despite these measures, the threats from Iran appear to be escalating.
Ynet sources claim that the Israeli government has identified several Iranian intelligence units responsible for tracking and targeting Israeli diplomats. The sources also point to Iranian hackers, who have attempted to disrupt Israeli diplomatic communications and gather intelligence on their activities.
The use of secret apartments is not a new phenomenon for Israeli diplomats. However, the situation has become increasingly dire since the recent tensions with Iran. In recent years, there have been several high-profile attacks on Israeli targets in countries such as Turkey and Jordan, which have further heightened the sense of insecurity among Israeli diplomats.
A senior Israeli diplomatic source has acknowledged that the situation is extremely challenging. “We are doing everything in our power to protect our diplomats, but the threats from Iran are becoming increasingly sophisticated and brazen,” they said.
The Israeli government has declined to comment on the specifics of the situation, citing security concerns. However, sources close to the government suggest that the decision to provide secret apartments for diplomats is a measure of last resort, aimed at ensuring their safety and maintaining the continuity of diplomatic activities.
As the conflict between the US and Iran continues to escalate, the Israeli government is expected to take further measures to protect its diplomats. However, the use of secret apartments and other security protocols is seen as a stopgap solution, rather than a long-term solution to the underlying problem.
The implications of these measures are far-reaching, and are likely to have a significant impact on the working lives of Israeli diplomats.
