Iran behind two assassinations in Netherlands – Dutch minister
THE HAGUE, Netherlands — Iran was likely behind the murders of two Dutch citizens believed to be dissidents against the regime in Tehran, Dutch Foreign Minister Stef Blok says.
The Dutch secret service “has strong indications that Iran was involved in the assassinations of two Dutch nationals of Iranian origin in Almere in 2015 and in The Hague in 2017,” Blok says in a letter to parliament.
“These individuals were opponents of the Iranian regime,” he says.
