At the stroke of midnight on Monday, IRGC launched a barrage of ballistic missiles at targets of terrorist groups in Syria and an Israeli spying base in Iraqi Kurdistan.
Among those killed in the operation was Peshraw Majid Agha Dizayee, a Kurdish multi-millionaire oil tycoon who shared close ties with Mossad and made a fortune from illegal export of Iraqi oil to the Tel Aviv regime.
The presence of Dizayee and his accomplices at the spying complex in Erbil suggested that a meeting of great importance was underway at the time of the attack, according to an informed security source.
The building that was destroyed in the IRGC missile strike, he said, was owned by him and regularly hosted meetings between him and Mossad officials, and was the place where many terrorist and sabotage attacks were planned against Iran.
Dizayee headed the Falcon Group conglomerate, with business interests in security, oil, gas, construction and agriculture, according to Kurdish media.
Interestingly, the company website says they are "pleased to provide security services to many international oil companies," pointing to the founder's deep links in the security and intelligence apparatus of Iraqi Kurdistan, which brought him closer to Mossad.
