Former Israeli operative recounts classified 1960s Sinai bugging plan involving senior military leaders

Former Israeli operative recounts classified 1960s Sinai bugging plan involving senior military leaders The passage provides a first‑person account of a covert Israeli operation to tap Egyptian communications in the Sinai, naming senior officials (Meir Amit, Avraham Arnan, Uri Yarom) and describing planning details. While it offers concrete names and a historical timeframe, the claim concerns events over 50 years ago, likely already known to intelligence historians, and lacks new documentary evidence or direct links to current wrongdoing, limiting its investigative immediacy. Key insights: Meir Amit, then chief of operations, pushed to revive a plan to intercept Nasser’s communications.; Avraham Arnan and Air Force commander Uri Yarom were involved in authorizing the mission.; The operation would have used Sikorsky S‑58 helicopters and a nine‑month training program.
