New reports reveal that the ambulance driver charged with spying for Iran allegedly documented President Isaac Herzog's visit to the Galilee Medical Center in Nahariya, as well as fortified underground emergency wards at Israeli hospitals. The driver, a married father of two, was allegedly operated by Iranian handlers for months and received tens of thousands of shekels, according to the emerging details.
New details have emerged in the case of the ambulance driver charged with spying for Iran, revealing the extent of his alleged surveillance activities. According to reports, the driver—who worked for a private ambulance company, granting him access to hospitals across the country—documented President Isaac Herzog's visit to the Galilee Medical Center in Nahariya, as well as the fortified underground emergency wards and protected areas of Israeli hospitals. He also allegedly photographed the community of Amikam, where former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant resides, and was sent to Hostages Square in Tel Aviv to be photographed with a sign for the hostages, as well as to the Horev Center in Haifa to document a protest.
As The Zioneer reported at 13:52 Jerusalem today, the driver, identified as Amir Hisham Muhammad Titi, a resident of Ba'neh in the Galilee, was arrested by the Shin Bet and Israel Police. The initial indictment accused him of exploiting his position to gather intelligence for Iranian handlers, including documenting hospital emergency preparations and the movements of senior officials.
The new details indicate that Titi was operated by Iranian handlers for several months and received tens of thousands of shekels in compensation. The payments were reportedly transferred through family bank accounts and digital wallets. The case highlights ongoing Iranian efforts to recruit Israeli civilians for espionage, particularly those with access to sensitive locations.
The investigation remains ongoing, and further details may emerge regarding the full scope of the intelligence gathered.
