Eye for Iran | Ep 9 | Iranian insider likely to be behind the assassination of Hamas leader
A British-Australian academic who was falsely imprisoned in Iran under espionage charges said the systematic incompetence of Iran’s security apparatus and the Iranian public’s sympathies to their own government’s enemies were the possible reasons why the leader of Hamas was assassinated in northern Tehran on July 31. Kylie Moore-Gilbert, who came into contact with high-level IRGC and state officials while jailed in the notorious Evin prison, explains why she believes there was likely an insider behind the suspected Israeli hit, as Iran reels in the wake of Ismail Haniyeh's assassination. Speaking to host Negar Mojtahedi, Moore-Gilbert also shares what she learned about her captors and what that means about the state of mind of high-ranking government officials in this week's episode of 'Eye for Iran.'
