Israelis report receive recruitment, threatening text messages from Iran
The Israel Police released a statement calling the messages “attempts by Iranian intelligence elements to recruit Israeli citizens in Israel and abroad.”
Assessment
Iranian intelligence appears to be escalating its psychological warfare against Israeli civilians through direct text messages. This tactic aims to create fear and distrust while attempting to gather information or recruit vulnerable individuals. The police's public warning suggests these efforts are coordinated and possibly part of a broader campaign. Citizens should remain vigilant and report such contacts immediately.
