This is CBSI in the world. I'm John Batser, Bill Rajah, my colleague and co-host of the Foundation for

the Defense of Democracy's Long War Journal, where I find Jonathan Sia's article entitled

Mysterious Wave of Explosion, Sudden IRGC Death Disrupt Post-Seasas-fire calm in Iran. Jonathan, this is a highly

suggestive article and headline. Suddenly unexplained deaths in senior positions in Iran. Is that what

we're pointing to? Good evening to you. Yes, we are. But I think most importantly, what we're seeing

is this scattered explosions that are not just happening across Tehran. They're happening across the country. That's number one. And number two, they're happening at very strategic locations. These are not just regular, quote-unquote, residential buildings. They're owned by either the armed forces or the Iranian judiciary or different government ministries.

So in theory, that would make sense.

But it's how the regime is seeking to cover up these explosions that perhaps indicates there might be a different intention behind these explosions and might not always be an accident.

There you have a question for Jonathan.

The obvious question, John, is who is responsible?

Clearly, Israel's Mossad has penetrated Iran's defense establishment.

We saw that the effectiveness of the strikes against Iran's nuclear programs and killing nuclear scientists. But this to me seems to be next level of intelligence penetration.

Who would the Mossad, if they're indeed, if you think they're responsible for this, who are they leaning on to actually execute these type of

attacks if they are indeed attacks? As you mentioned, assuming it is the Mossad, and like you

mentioned, they would be the only, one of the only perhaps two intelligence agencies in the world

that would have the capacity to do that inside Iran. And they've demonstrated that they have
