What went wrong inside Nepal’s security apparatus before the Gen Z protests?

A report published by The New York Times on July 13, titled “Inside Israel’s Secret Operation to Cultivate Ahmadinejad,” claimed that Israel’s intelligence agency Mossad had been running a covert operation to install former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as the country’s new leader.

The report, whether its claims are ultimately proven or not, offered a striking reminder of the reach of an intelligence apparatus: a foreign intelligence agency allegedly working to influence political leadership inside an adversary state.
