CNN has reported that Israel’s Mossad headquarters are located in a “densely populated area” in Tel Aviv, posing risks to civilians during Iran’s attack.

“The concern is if your firing, even though Iran might consider that a military target, it is in a densely populated city with civilians around it," CNN reported.

The remarks raised questions on social media on why West did not accuse the intelligence agency of using Israeli civilians as “human shields”, as they claim Hamas and Hezbollah do.

    Because they never thought people would attack it. When it was built, attacks were bombs on busses, not hypersonic missles shot from Iran.

      That can’t be it. Of course the foreign intelligence headquarters were built with all sorts of security in mind.
