In "Operation Diamond: The Bold Defection that Changed History," we unravel one of Mossad's most daring and successful operations. In 1966, Mossad convinced an Iraqi Air Force pilot to defect with a Soviet MiG-21 fighter jet, a move that gave Israel crucial intelligence on Soviet military technology. This extraordinary mission not only demonstrated Mossad’s skill in espionage but also shifted the balance of power in the Middle East. Tune in as we explore the high-stakes drama, strategic genius, and the hidden courage that made Operation Diamond one of the most audacious intelligence coups in history.
