Journalist and intelligence expert Yossi Melman joins Jonathan Silver to explore the extraordinary story of Eli Cohen, Israel’s most revered spy. Cohen, an Egyptian-born Jew, infiltrated the highest ranks of the Syrian regime in the 1960s before being captured and executed in Damascus. For decades, Israel tried and failed to obtain Syria’s secret archive on his case. Now, it has.
Melman explores how the dramatic regime-change in Syria led to the release of 2,500 long-guarded documents, what they reveal about Cohen’s operation, and why his legacy continues to shape Israeli intelligence today—especially in the wake of October 7th. As Israel rethinks its intelligence priorities, Eli Cohen’s mission can offer some vital lessons.
