CIA helps Israel assassinate Hezbollah commander: Report

The Central Intelligence Agency helped Israel’s intelligence service, Mossad, to assassinate Imad Mughniyah, a high-ranking Hezbollah figure, on Feb. 12, 2008, a report said.

 

 
During an operation aided by the CIA, Mossad remotely detonated a bomb planted in the spare tire of a parked SUV in the Syrian capital of Damascus killing Mughniyah who was walking toward the vehicle.
 
According to a former US intelligence official, the CIA had been tracking Mughniyah‘s movements prior to the operation and also helped build the bomb.
