The Quds Force was also responsible for similar recent schemes against Israeli officials in Australia and Europe, according to Axios
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps targeted Israel’s ambassador to Mexico in a thwarted assassination attempt last summer, according to U.S. and Israeli officials.
The IRGC’s Quds Force orchestrated the plan against Israeli ambassador Einat Kranz-Neiger, which was active through the first half of 2025 until Mexican security services neutralized the threat, Axios reported Friday based on conversations with U.S. and Israeli officials.
An operative in Unit 11000 of the Quds Force, a secret unit in Iran’s global terror network, led the initiative and spent several years operating out of Iran’s embassy in Venezuela and recruiting agents throughout Latin America.
