Two Iranian agents were recently arrested in Kenya, planning to attack Israeli and US sites.
Officials in Kenya say that two Iranian agents who were arrested in June with explosives planned to attack Israeli, American, British or Saudi Arabian targets inside Kenya.
The officials said Monday that the plot appears to fit into a global pattern of attacks or attempted attacks by Iranian agents, mostly against Israeli interests.
Kenyan security forces arrested the Iranians in June and were led to 15 kilograms (33 pounds) of RDX, a powerful explosive, in the coastal city of Mombasa. Several hotels on the coast are Israeli-owned.
One official said the Iranians are members of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps Quds Force, an elite and secretive unit. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were discussing security issues.
I wonder if the Iranian agents managed to fit in some leisure time.
Meanwhile, here’s their picture:
They look more “all-you-can-eat” than “elite.” If they are considered elite, than I guess so is this guy.
