Abu Ali Al-Askari, the spokesperson for the Iraqi Kataib Hezbollah, considered on Thursday that the admission by Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu concerning the presence of an Israeli security agent held in Iraq is a very dangerous indicator.

On Wednesday, Netanyahu's office accused Kataib Hezbollah of kidnapping Israeli- Russian woman Elizabeth Tsurkov, who has been reported missing in Iraq for months.

Al-Askari indicated on Telegram that the group was doing everything in its capacity to uncover the fate of Zionist agents held in Iraq.

"The security organizations concerned should expose networks linked to this entity and bring them to justice," the Iraqi official stressed.

He underlined that Kataib Hezbollah "will work tirelessly" to discover more about the intentions of "the criminal gang" that facilitates the movement of Zionist agents in a country that prohibits and criminalizes any relation with the Israeli occupation.

Netanyahu's office claimed that Tsurkov had visited Iraq "on her Russian passport at her own initiative pursuant to work on her doctorate and academic research on behalf of Princeton University in the US."

AFP quoted an Iraqi intelligence source as saying that Tsurkov was kidnapped in Baghdad "at the beginning of Ramadan," the Muslim fasting month which this year started on March 23.

It is noteworthy that Tsurkov has been over the past years working on preparing field research in Iraq, Syria, and occupied Palestine, for the benefit of the Foreign Policy Research Institute, based in Philadelphia, and the Forum for Regional Thinking, an Israeli think tank based in occupied Al-Quds.
