Israel arrested 'Prisoner X' for exposing Mossad plans to Australia – report
Alleged Mossad agent Ben Zygier, who committed suicide in an Israeli prison in 2010, was arrested by Israel for relaying intelligence information to domestic Australian spy agency ASIO, Australian TV channel ABC said Monday. The channel reported that Zygier gave ASIO detailed information about various Mossad plans, including a major operation in Italy. The Israeli parliament said on Sunday its Foreign Affairs and Defense Subcommittee for Intelligence would hold an “intensive examination” of the circumstances surrounding Zygier’s prison suicide.
