The local newspaper “Daily Sabah” claims that the senior Palestinian is in contact with the “agents” arrested by the authorities • It is possible that these are accusations designed to discredit Dahlan, who has harshly criticized Hamas in recent days
The “Mossad” spy case in Turkey: A leading newspaper in the country claimed that the former Palestinian official, Mohammed Dahlan, was in contact with “Mossad agents” who were arrested by the Turkish authorities in a special operation in several different destinations throughout the country.
According to the report, the agents were in contact with Dahlan, who lives in Serbia, through social networks, and evidence of this was found by the Turkish investigators. The reason for the communication between the alleged agents and the Palestinian official was not specified by the newspaper.
It was also claimed that hundreds of thousands of euros in cash were found in the possession of the arrested agents, as well as a gun and a lot of ammunition. It was also reported that 12 suspects have not yet been arrested and are on the run from law enforcement. More than a hundred people were arrested. The country’s attorney general’s office claimed that the squad that was exposed planned to kidnap foreign citizens on Turkish soil.
It is important to note that this may be an attempt to discredit Dahlan, who recently harshly criticized the terrorist organization Hamas and claimed that the October 7 attack had “devastating consequences” for the residents of the Gaza Strip. The Hamas organization, which has important allies in power in Turkey, may be the one behind the media attack on the former official.
Neither Abbas nor Hamas”: Mohammad Dahlan outlines the day after in the Gaza Strip
Abu Mazen’s former national security advisor to the New York Times: “There should be new people at the head of the Palestinian Authority” • According to him, a new leadership will be able to invite forces from Saudi Arabia and the Emirates to maintain order in the Strip • “This is conditional on steps towards a two-state solution”, he clarified.
Despite his claims that he does not intend to replace Mahmoud Abbas when the war in Gaza ends, world leaders are following Dahlan. Senior officials in the United States, Europe, and especially in Egypt, Jordan and the principalities, continue to mark him as a successor. Recently, the Saudi crown prince also joined in supporting Dahlan’s character as the next leader – which could make him a “target” among Hamas or even current PLO officials.
