Times of Israel: Mossad kidnapped Iranian generals, killed one, in effort to locate Ron Arad

According to the Times of Israel, citing the New York Times, the Israeli intelligence agency (Mossad) conducted multiple operations over several decades to kidnap Iranian officials in an effort to uncover the fate of missing Israeli pilot Ron Arad. The report states that these efforts were based on the misguided belief that Iran held information regarding the pilot's whereabouts. During one of these operations, an Iranian general was kidnapped, and in another, an Iranian official was killed.
