Iran has been busy hatching murderous plots against Israelis and Jews around the world. Mossad has foiled all of them — so far. Now the mastermind at the center of the the terror web has been revealed: he is Sardar Ammar, a senior commander in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC); Israel has just painted a target on his back. More about Ammar can be found here: “Mossad names ‘Sardar Ammar’ as architect of Iranian plots in Australia, Greece, and Germany,” by Amichai Stein, Jerusalem Post, October 26, 2025:
Israel’s Mossad on Sunday publicly identified a senior Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) figure it says oversaw multiple foiled attacks against Israeli and Jewish targets worldwide in 2024–2025 and pointed to fresh diplomatic fallout, including Australia’s expulsion of Iran’s ambassador and Germany’s summoning of Tehran’s envoy.
In a statement released via the Prime Minister’s Office on behalf of the Mossad, the agency said it was “exposing for the first time” a network under Sardar Ammar, a senior IRGC commander operating under Esmail Qaani, the commander of the Quds Force, which it said directed attempts in Australia, Greece, and Germany.
The Mossad described the modus operandi as “terror without Iranian fingerprints, high compartmentalization, recruitment of foreigners, use of criminals, and covert communications,” adding that “thanks to intensive activity with partners in Israel and abroad, dozens of attack tracks were thwarted, saving many lives.”
The agency said Ammar’s mechanism “was directly responsible for the attempted attacks revealed in Greece, Australia, and Germany over the past year,” alleging it sought to strike “Israeli and Jewish targets in Israel and abroad” but was repeatedly exposed, leading to “a wave of arrests.”…
All of the attacks failed, in Australia, Greece, and Germany, where Mossad detected them in time and provided information about the terrorists to the local authorities, who rounded them up. In Australia, the discovery of the Iranian-directed plots led Canberra to cut off diplomatic relations with Iran. In Germany, the government summoned the Iranian ambassador for a dressing-down and a warning, following the discovery that a Danish national, whom the IRGC employed, had been surveilling Jewish and Israel-linked sites in Berlin on behalf of Iranian intelligence.
For all of his plotting, Sardar Ammar has yet to have had even a single success in his attempt to attack Jewish and Israeli targets worldwide. And now his name and photograph and details of his terror plots have been made public. Does anyone think, after all his miching mallecho, that Mossad will allow him to live, wherever he may now be hiding? He is now most likely a dead man, or soon to be.
