14 DAY TRIAL // The FARS News Agency has learned that Israel and Saudi Arabia are planning to create a piece of computer malware capable of sabotaging Iran’s nuclear program.
The worm, in which around $1 million (€750,000) will be invested, is said to be similar to Stuxnet, only more destructive. The aim of the project is not only to sabotage Iran’s nuclear program, but also to gather intelligence.
FARS reports that Saudi Arabia’s spy chief, Prince Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, met with Tamir Bardo of the Mossad intelligence agency on November 24 in Vienna, Austria.
Saudi officials are unhappy with the recent agreement reached by Iran with US, Russia, China, France, Britain and Germany (Group 5+1).
It’s worth noting that Israel has some experience in developing advanced malware designed to target Iran’s nuclear program. Stuxnet is said to have been created by Israel and the United States.
