Tensions in the Middle East have taken a dramatic turn after a senior Iranian official claimed that a new terrorist attack similar to the September 11 attacks could be planned to blame Iran.
Ali Larijani, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, alleged that members connected to the network of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein are plotting a “false flag” operation designed to frame Tehran for a large-scale attack.
Ali Larijani made the claim in a message posted on X, where he warned that the alleged conspiracy could resemble the devastating 9/11 attacks that shook the United States in 2001.
