On March 2, just days after the United States and Israel launched Operation Epic Fury against Iran, Greek authorities arrested Samir G., a 35-year-old Georgian citizen, on suspicion of spying for Iranian intelligence at the Souda Bay naval base in Crete. The USS Gerald R. Ford had entered the bay on Feb. 6 and became heavily involved in operations against Iran.Samir G. flew from Germany to Athens on Feb. 5 and immediately traveled to Crete, paying $20,000 in cash for a villa overlooking the bay. Greek intelligence documented him photographing the USS Gerald R. Ford. He spoke Persian in the villa and opened every conversation with the code phrase: “Ice cream in Crete is good.” Greek Vice Adm. Yannis Egolfopoulos told local media this was a professionally managed network activity directly connected to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Samir G. is a resident of Gardabani in Georgia’s Kvemo Kartli region. He studied at a Shia madrasa in Marneuli and spent two years deepening his religious education in Qom. Qom is the Iranian clerical hub where the Union of Georgian Students pipelines recruits from Georgia’s Shia community into Iranian regime networks.There is a serious problem here.
