Mossad was formed on 13 December 1949 on the orders of Israel's first Prime Minister David Ben Gurion. PM David wanted to create an organization that would work covertly alongside the military to protect the country.
Mossad spies complete their operations by gathering secret information. Most of its operations are in the national interest of Israel. Mossad is also engaged in such secret operations to eliminate terrorism. The director of Mossad reports directly to the Prime Minister.
How are agents recruited into the Mossad?
To understand the recruitment of agents in the Mossad spy agency, it is important to understand three words Katsa, Kidon and Sayanim. The Mossad field intelligence officer is called Katsa. Katsa recruits only field agents. Katsa is a Hebrew word meaning secret officer. The person in this position leads the Mossad agent and passes on the information collected by the agent to the director of Mossad.
The professional killers in Mossad are called Kidon. Its job is to kill if needed in an operation. For this, the agent is given two years of training. Sayanim refers to those who report to the field agents of Mossad. There are about four thousand Sayanim in Britain alone. The entire work of Mossad is done at the behest of the Prime Minister. The Director of Mossad is accountable only to the Prime Minister. He reports directly to the PM.
What is the budget of Mossad?
Israel's intelligence agency Mossad launched a venture capital fund in June 2017 to develop new cyber technology. Therefore, Mossad invested heavily in high-tech start-ups. According to an estimate, the annual budget of Mossad is US $ 2.73 billion. This amount is Rs 22,810 crore from the Indian currency account, which has been approved by the Cabinet. It is estimated that about seven thousand people work under Mossad, making it one of the largest spy agencies in the world. A person who worked as an undercover agent for Mossad for 28 years said that Israel benefited from the attack, but this does not mean that Mossad was behind the attack. Only CIA, MI6 and Mossad can attack in this way. For this you should get full support of the government. Intelligence connections, money and expertise are required.
A person who has worked in Mossad said that people work for Mossad all over the world. These people live in different places. They look different and speak different languages. My family is from Iraq. I can speak Arabic and look like an Iraqi-Arab. That's why I worked secretly for Mossad in Lebanon. The second reason is that we have to struggle to survive in our own country. He said that like the KGB, CIA and British agencies, Mossad gained prestige during the Cold War. To fulfill our mission and carry out any operation, we work in a very secretive manner, but we also have to take full care of security.
