The Kurds said that a pro-Iranian media piece that claimed an attack on a "Mossad base in Iraq" was as fake as a prostitute's undying love.
The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) in northern Iraq issued a statement that debunked the pro-Iranian news report that said an attack on an Israeli Mossad facility killed several Israelis, the Times of Israel reported Wednesday.
“We can confirm that news reports about an attack on an Israeli intelligence facility in the region are false,” the KRG statement said, adding that there are “Mossad bases” in the Kurdistan Region of northern Iraq.
Iran’s FARS news reported that the Iraqi Sabereen News outlet had claimed in a report Tuesday that “a Mossad center came under attack by unknown resistance forces … adding that the attack resulted in the death and injury of a number of Israeli forces, including a senior officer, dealing a ‘heavy blow’ to the regime and its spy agency.”

Fortunately, no Israelis were hurt in making up the story.
Not surprisingly, the report contained no details about the attack and raised serious doubts about its veracity.

The Washington Institute for Near East Policy (WINEP) notes that Sabereen News is “the most influential muqawama [resistance]” news source whose goals include “spreading disinformation for a variety of purposes, including to discredit the Iraqi government” as well as to incite muqawama supporters, propagate anti U.S sentiment and “promote and disseminate real and fake news.”
The Kurds occupy an important geo-strategic location in northern Iraq and the area has been been Iraq’s most stable region. The Kurds have been a steadfast partner to the US for nearly three decades and have played a critical role in countering threats from groups like ISIS and al-Qaeda, says WINEP.

Sabereen News may be a sister outlet to CNN, anonymous sources say.
