Israeli Intelligence Foils Hezbollah’s Plan To Attack Brazil

According to a tweet by PM Netanyahu's office, Israeli Intelligence Mossad, along with Brazil's Federal Police, foiled Hezbollah’s plan to attack Brazil.

Israel's secret agency, the Mossad, worked with Brazil's Federal Police to stop Hezbollah-planned terrorist strikes. Two people who were connected to the terrorist organization were taken into custody as a result of an intelligence operation launched by Brazilian law enforcement.

Brazilian police carried out 11 search and seizure orders as well as two temporary detention warrants under the code name "Operation Trapiche." The Federal District, São Paulo, and Minas Gerais were the locations of the operations.
