Syria TV broadcast confessions of Israeli spy involved in Mughniyeh assassination

In his confessions broadcast Saturday by Syria TV, Israeli Spy Iyad Youssef An'eim has confessed to collaborating with the Israeli Mossad and providing them with information that facilitated the assassination of martyr Imad Mughniyeh.

An'eim, who was born in 1976 in Amman, Jordan and holds both the Jordanian and Palestinian citizenships, said he studied philosophy in the Lattakia-based Tishreen University from 1995 to 2000.

"In mid-2006 I was recruited and asked to head to Syria in the beginning of 2007, after I was trained by an Israeli Mossad officer named Dawood along with another group of Mossad officers in occupied Jerusalem," the Israeli spy said.

He said that he used to communicate with those who recruited him weekly through the phone.

"They asked me to provide them with information about Lattakia residents, the nature of their work and the interaction between different sects there...They were interested in the demographic architecture of the city," An'eim said.

He went on to say that he headed to Damascus to gather information about diplomatic bodies and headquarters of Hezbollah and Hamas.

The Israeli spy added that he provided the Israelis with the plate number of a silver Pajero car that turned out later on to be the vehicle used in the assassination of Senior Hezbollah Commander Imad Mughniyeh.
