The December 2023 Cyprus terror plot on December 10, 2023, was a planned terrorist attack against Israelis in Cyprus. Cyprus Police, after a surveillance operation in co-ordination with the Cypriot Intelligence Service and information from Mossad, arrested two operatives of the Iranian quds force who were surveilling Israeli targets for a possible attack.[1]
Two Iranians suspected of planning to perpetrate terrorist attacks against Israelis in Cyprus were arrested by local authorities on Sunday. The Israeli authorities confirmed the news, adding the Mossad security agency was instrumental in foiling the terrorist plot.
