Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps plotted to assassinate Israel’s ambassador to Mexico starting late last year, but the effort was contained and there is no current threat, a US official claimed on Friday. Mexico’s government said later in the day it had “no information regarding an alleged attack against the Israeli ambassador to Mexico.” The US official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the plot against the ambassador, Einat Kranz Neiger, had been active through the first half of this year.
