Iranian official says Saudi Arabia shared intel with Israel in 2006

Iranian parliament speaker Ali Larijani tells Lebanese media that Saudi Arabia shared intelligence with Israel in 2006, during the Second Lebanon War.

Larijani also tells Al-Mayadeen that the Saudis shirked their responsibilities toward the Palestinians during the 22-day war in Gaza — a likely reference to the 2009 Operation Cast Lead — by blaming the Iranians for arming Hamas.

Iran and Saudi Arabia cut ties earlier this year.
