Iranian Quds Force Colonel Hassan Sayad Khodayari who was assassinated on May 22 had planned kidnappings and other attacks on Israeli and Jewish targets worldwide, according to reports in the Israeli media.
The Quds Force is one of five branches of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) specializing in unconventional warfare and military intelligence operations. The force is mainly active against Israeli and the US.
Khodayari was shot and killed in the heart of the Iranian capital, Tehran, by two assailants who were moving on a motorcycle.
Israel’s Channel 12 reported that Khodayari was behind an attempt by Iranian operatives to lure Israeli academics, businesspeople, and former defense officials abroad and possibly kidnap or harm them. The attempt was recently uncovered by the Shin Bet security agency.
The news channel also said that Khodayari was behind an alleged plot to kill five Israelis in Cyprus that was uncovered last November.
Channel 12 said that Khodayari had recently returned from Syria. He reportedly service in the past in the country under the command of former IRGC’s Quds Force commander Major General Qassem Soleimani, who was killed in a US drone strike in Iraq in January 2020.
The Iranian media called Khodayari “defender of the sanctuary,” a term usually used to refer to IRGC service members who were deployed in Syria or Iraq.

An Iranian security source was quoted by Jadeh Iran as saying that Khodayari played an “important” role in Iran’s military industry, “especially when it came to drones.” The news outlet also revealed that the senior officer was involved in the transfer of weapons to Syria.
The nature of Khodayari work and the method used to kill him indicate that the Mossad, Israel’s national intelligence agency, was behind the assassination. The IRGC blamed the assassination on the “enemies of the revolution” and the “followers of global arrogance” in a hint to Israel and the US.
The Nour News agency, which is affiliated with Iran’s Supreme National Security Council said that the assassination of Khodayari constitutes “a crossing of the red line,” and that those responsible “will pay a heavy price.”
The assassination of Khodayari will clearly lead to more tensions between Iran and both the Israel and the US. An Iranian response seems inevitable. Israel may have orchestrated the assassination to sabotage the ongoing US-Iran talks to revive the 2015 nuclear deal.
Payoff on its way.
it should because the Jew savages are out of control.
The Middle East , Israel ,Islamist terrorists ,Iranian government etc all set up by the West from London .
Sure ISIS digged a tunnel. They bring Syrian oil too.
I can’t believe southfront actually believed what israel said. Everyone they kill supposedly plotting to attack Jewish sites only to find out they’re false flags by Jews themselves
It seems the Zionist regime wants to start a war they will not win..
They’ll be chilling in their bunkers like when Hamas was shooting rockets at tel aviv. those coward leaders didn’t even have enough confidence in their iron doom, so they hid underground
As usual, they will fight to the last Americunt. The Hezb will flatten israel, Khamenei will boat- ride into Jerusalem in the rivers of blood of slaughtered ziopigs and declare Palestine a part of the persian empire.
dats ‘cos Hamas was doing their Iranian friends a favour by testing Iron Doom. Now Iran knows for sure Iron Doom cant stop Iranian missiles.
Yep it’s Iron Poop lol
Prove it… these are claims by the pigs Zion (Zion’s main enemy is Iran and you believe them)?- YOU DON’T USE THEM AS SOURCES YOU FUK HEADS.
Should I believe in Ukraine’s claims as well? Because that is what you are saying here.
SF you are the clowns – fuking rtded clowns. If you fuking dare say Ukraine claims are BS – I’m going put my foot up your assholes.
I said this before and I say again – there aren’t Zion killing Iranians – those people who follow Zion/Mossad orders are MEK and anti-regime forces.
True. MEK monkeys need to be liquidated. But Iran truly did assasinate Mossad Bureau chief in Tel Aviv a few months ago.
and who believes ANYTHING the Israeli Terrorist Nation says this is the same mob who claimed their soldiers did no wrong in Killing media people and ambulance people and kids and woman last year
Now, seriously. Israel is provoking a war in the Middle East by bombing targets in Syria and assassinating Iranian officials. This is not a coincidence. They need a pretext to move Israel to another country. In 2012 Henry Kissinger said that Israel would not be able to exist in the Middle East longer than 10 years. It is now 2022. Simultaneously, they are preparing Ukraine (and perhaps part of Poland) as a future Jewish state. This whole war is very unusual. It looks like its goal is to depopulate Ukraine – some will die fighting the Russians, others will migrate permanently to Europe. Just look at what is going on. Khasars are getting ready to move back to the Khasar empire – and nobody is seeing it. Poor Ukrainian patriots are dying, for what?! This is the biggest manipulation of global public opinion that I remember in 72 years. Obviously, Israel will need a pretext to move from the desert to this rich and fertile land with lots of water and natural resources. Who else may be interested in this arrangement? 1. The American masons, who need a buffer zone that will not allow closer cooperation between Europe and Russia; 2. The Russian and German politicians based in the French masonry, who want closer relations with Russia. Both Russia and the US have been competing for years for a regime change and control of the government in Kiev. Since 2014, we have pro-American Jews controlling Ukraine and this is why the war in now taking place. It is not only justified by Russia’s security, there is the entire concept of future Eurasia at stake here. We remember that, around 2018, Putin had some close dealings with Netanyahu but we have never learned what the details were. Whatever it was, it did not work, or else we would not have a war in Ukraine today.
Israel has convinced the world that the Middle East is their homeland. Jews themselves will not believe anything after they move to Ukraine. Israel wants the Litani and Nile river for the fertile land, hydroelectricity and the gas in Lebanon and Palestine waters amongst other things. I doubt they’ll move any where, moving out of the ME will piss Russia off, and pissing Russia off isn’t a good idea
Thought-filled post. Thank you for your intelligent and informed comments.
Iran’s internal security is shit. Absolute shit. I don’t know how many high level figures Israel has knocked off, but they seem capable of doing so with impunity.
It’s kind of difficult when there’s still lots of people who drool over a picture of shah, those cowards will do anything to please the Zionist. Iran does need to work on their internal intelligence more though
It does seem that way * IF * the info is true. It’s really difficult to say with all the misinformation being posted everywhere. There is another possibility. What if this guy was an Israeli agent? Posting this message is sending a message to Israel.
South Front publishes the information and allows you to make up your own mind about what you’re reading.
Are you really in favor of censorship – in favor of restricting access to information just because you don’t want people to learn about events that paint you and your fellow true believers in a bad light?
Grow up. It’s time to join the adults in the room…
Then the title should properly reflect it – not some bait trap headline which claims neutrality, and objectivity.
zionist ALWAYS HAVE AN EXCUSE FOR MURDERING INNOCENT IRANIAN OR PALESTINIANS AND SAD PART. IS EVEN SOUTHFRONT BUYS THEIR VERSION WITHOUT VERIFICATION OR INVESTIGATION

Iranian secret service needs to up their game. Clearly Mossad is operating with impunity throughout Iran.
Why is it so easy for the us and their israeli friends to find traitors everywhere.
izrahell has no red lines the world is their oyster till someone gives them a lesson
Never belief the zionist lies and hatemongering !
Two guys on motorcycle, with Iran so good at making and having so many drones, so why couldn’t the police use drones to survey the sky of the capital and major cities.
According to Israeli media, politicians, experts and whatnot, Iran would have nuclear weapons in 6 months for the last 20 years or more.
Always invoking eternal jewish victimhood, hysterically shrieking antisemitism at a hint of justified criticism of Israeli warcrimes and crimes against humanity and of course “preemptive wars & murders” or rather wars of aggression and terrorism, because reasons.
Then acting surprised when people really do not like them, the mass delusion of “victims” that are perpetrators.
Iran HAS Nukes. Some bought, some made. Israel will be the only one surprised when the Mullahs stick it up their arses.
so Israel will sit and take it? you Stupid idiot I don’t think gays mollahs will have time to hide they are all going to be ashes. Yankee f*** you to
Has the evil zionist israel Gov never planned attacks against Iran, Syria, Iraq, Russia, lebanon, and the palestinians ???
The two attacker’s on the motorcycle what is known about them . They will have had help to carry out this attack. A safe house to operate from other vehicles people who help get them away after the attack. Is it possible that they may even still be in the city! Close everything and search with a fine toothcomb until you find them . And their helpers.
