Terror suspects accused of targeting London 'wanted missiles and drones' from Iran

Résumé détaillé

Legal papers reveal details of series of terror strikes on Jewish sites in London

Two men suspected of plotting a string of terror attacks including on London wanted to acquire missiles and drones, according to legal documents.

The claim is made in an indictment by the US Department of Justice (DOJ) on terrorism-related charges against three individuals over their suspected involvement in nearly 20 incidents across Europe and America.

Iranian-Iraqi national Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood al-Saadi, Iranian national Mohsen Mohajeri, and Iraqi national Mohammad Ali al-Hassani have been charged in an eight-count indictment in connection with their alleged activities in support of two US-designated foreign terrorist organisations, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and Iran-backed Iraqi militia Kataib Hezbollah.

Seven of their alleged plots targeted Britain including the stabbing of two Jewish men in Golders Green, attacks on synagogues in London, the arson on Hatzola ambulances in the capital, strikes on a Jewish charity and media organisation, and a purported attack on the Israeli Embassy in Kensington with drones claimed to have been “loaded with dangerous carcinogenic and radioactive materials”, according to the legal documents.

They state that Mohajeri, 48, is an operative of the IRGC military force, accused of being Iran’s main exporter of terrorism.
