Germany Tackles Potential Iranian Infiltration Among Refugees
Intelligence agencies in Germany's SPD party issue alert for suspected infiltration of Iranian clerics. - Iranian agents linked to Mullah regime suspected of infiltration, according to SPD warning.
Looks like the refugee tidal wave ain't slowing, and this time, it's Iranians fleeing from Israeli military strikes that're headin' to Germany. The SPD's spokin' out warnings about the Mullah regime tryin' to exploit this influx for their own nasty games.
According to Sebastian Fiedler, the SPD's interior spokesman in the Bundestag, the Iranian regime might use refugees as pawns to smuggle in their own people, possibly operatives from the Revolutionary Guards. He tells stern, "We mustn't let the Iranian regime, especially the Revolutionary Guards, infiltrate Germany under the guise of asylum seekers."
Fiedler doesn't mince words when it comes to the Greens demandin' a deportation ban for Iranian refugees. He points out that only 14 people were deported from Germany to Iran last year, and in the first quarter of this year, just five. Fiedler believes it's currently near-impossible to deport to Iran.
Call to Ban Deportations to Iran
Filiz Polat, parliamentary business manager of the Greens, is insistent on an immediate nationwide ban on deportations to Iran. "Refugees fleeing to us must be protected from death or persecution," Polat tells "taz".

Behind the Scene:
Asylum-seekers from Iran could potentially be used by Iranian regime agents to infiltrate Europe. Specifically, the Revolutionary Guards might employ this tactic, posing as refugees to enter Germany. The SPD's concern revolves around security, focusing on male refugees. Fiedler asserts it's essential to balance humanitarian protection with national security, emphasizing the necessity of scrutinizing male refugees to deter infiltration.
European security forces have been growing more aware of Iran's attempts to use diaspora and refugee networks for espionage and terrorism-related activities. Although German authorities were previously cautious in attributing covert actions to Iranian agents, the SPD's stance now highlights increased vigilance and concern for these threats. The SPD suggests implementing careful screening and surveillance of asylum seekers to uncover potential Iranian agents within the refugee flow.
