Mossad-Backed MEK’s Footprint Exist in Tehran Explosions

Israel attacks on Iran

On June 15, 2025, a series of bombings across Tehran shook the city, endangering the lives of ordinary citizens and evoking memories of the actions of the Mujahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) during the 1980s. The bombings were seen as a clear escalation in the ongoing violence, drawing attention to the MEK’s involvement in terrorist activities in Iran.

The Islamic Republic claims that the MEK, which failed to garner popular support by promoting concepts such as “rebel cells” and “uprisings,” has now aligned itself with foreign powers and warmongers. The MEK, which once relied on Saddam Hussein for support, is now believed to be working with Israel’s intelligence agency, Mossad, to carry out operations in Iran, including the recent bombings.

Following earlier attacks on Iran’s nuclear scientists, where several were killed, U.S. officials confirmed to NBC News that the attacks on the scientists were carried out by the MEK, which was financed, trained, and armed by Israeli intelligence. The latest wave of violence—targeting civilians through bombings—continues this pattern of terrorist activities.

Iran’s government stresses that the MEK, as a group of exiled Iranian nationals familiar with the language, culture, and operational tactics, is an ideal tool for Mossad to execute covert operations like the recent bombings in Tehran. The MEK’s role in spying on Iran’s nuclear program and its involvement in the assassination of Iranian scientists have been documented by various investigative journalists.

Kevin Jon Heller, an international law and security professor at the University of Copenhagen, analyzed the NBC News article and stated: “According to the Terrorist Bombing Convention, ‘states cannot be terrorists’ only as long as bombings are carried out by ‘military forces’ of a state; bombings conducted by a civilian intelligence service like Mossad are not exempt from the definition of terrorism under the convention. Therefore, Mossad’s actions in using the MEK to kill Iranian nuclear scientists qualify as terrorism.”

In recent years, bombings in public spaces—aimed at destabilising independent governments—have often been attributed to ISIS, an entity created by Western powers and their regional allies. However, long before the rise of ISIS and al-Qaeda, it was the MEK that pioneered such acts of terror in Iran and the broader Middle East. For this reason, many consider Massoud Rajavi, the leader of the MEK, as the architect of these types of assassinations in Iran and the greater West Asia region.
