Fresh controversy has erupted in the Middle East after claims that Mossad agents were arrested in Qatar and Saudi Arabia for allegedly planning bomb attacks.
American journalist Tucker Carlson made the revelation, suggesting Israel’s objectives go beyond targeting Iran and include weakening key Gulf countries.
According to Carlson’s claims, Mossad agents were arrested last night in Qatar and Saudi Arabia. He alleged that the operatives were planning bomb attacks in both countries.
The reported arrests have sparked questions about Israel’s broader regional strategy, particularly at a time when tensions across the Gulf are already running high.
'Beyond understanding'
Carlson described the situation as “strange” and “beyond understanding.” He questioned why Israel would allegedly plan bomb attacks in two Gulf countries that are themselves facing attacks from Iran.

“Why would the Israelis bomb two Gulf countries when Iran is also attacking the same countries? Aren’t they all standing in the same row?” he asked.
Claim of wider Israeli objective
According to Carlson, Israel’s goal is not limited to harming Iran. He claimed that Israel also seeks to weaken other Gulf states, including:
-
Qatar
-
United Arab Emirates
-
Saudi Arabia
-
Bahrain
-
Oman
-
Kuwait
He further claimed that Israel has already succeeded in weakening these countries “to some extent".
Regional tensions mount
The allegations come amid a broader regional conflict involving Iran, Israel, and the United States, with Gulf states increasingly caught in the crossfire.
While no official confirmation has been provided by the governments involved regarding the alleged Mossad arrests, the claims have added another layer of complexity to an already volatile situation.
If verified, the accusations could significantly impact diplomatic relations and security dynamics across the Gulf region.
