Iran’s Quds Force Fails Assassin Side Hustle In Mexico
In a plot straight out of a low-budget spy thriller, Iran’s shadowy Quds Force unit 11000—basically the James Bond villains of the IRGC—planned to assassinate Israel's ambassador to Mexico, Einat Kranz-Neiger. The timeline: cooked up in late 2024, cooked again through early 2025, then tossed out by Mexican security over summer. The lead operative owned a Venezuela-based spy side hustle before returning to Tehran HQ, proving binge-watching telenovelas doubles as advanced espionage training. Meanwhile, Israel thanks Mexico for doing the dirty work while reminding everyone it’s also very busy playing international hit squad—not on official ambassador contracts, but hey, details. Iran’s UN office just gave the classic shrug and ‘no comment.’

Iran’s elite Unit 11000 apparently thought Mexico was the perfect spot for embassy-level assassinations—because nothing says subtle international relations like botched spy capers and Venezuelan embassy escapades. Talk about redecorating diplomatic drama.
When your espionage plan involves assassination via Latin America, but Mexican cops swipe left like it’s Tinder, you might need better hobby choices than being a world-class villain.
Iran's Quds Force targeting Mexico is like a bad sequel nobody asked for. Even James Bond would hang up his tux at this point.
