Turkey detains seven suspected of selling information to Israel’s Mossad

Turkish police have detained seven people, including a private detective, suspected of selling information to Israel’s Mossad intelligence service,
state-owned Anadolu news agency said on Tuesday.
Anadolu cited security sources as saying the private detective, a former public servant, was suspected of gathering information on Middle Eastern companies and individuals in Turkey, placing tracking devices and engaging in surveillance.
The sources said the detentions were part of an operation carried out by Turkey’s national intelligence agency MIT and Istanbul counter-terror police.
Ankara made no official statement on the operation. Israel did not immediately comment on the Anadolu report.
