CNN says Mossad headquarters in 'densely populated' area, raising eyebrows on social media

CNN has reported that Israel’s Mossad headquarters are located in a “densely populated area” in Tel Aviv, posing risks to civilians during Iran’s attack.

“The concern is if your firing, even though Iran might consider that a military target, it is in a densely populated city with civilians around it," CNN reported. 

The remarks raised questions on social media on why West did not accuse the intelligence agency of using Israeli civilians as "human shields", as they claim Hamas and Hezbollah do. 

“Insane, right? that's THEIR main argument in Gaza/Lebanon!” one social media user wrote.

“By the US/Israel's own logic, this is human shielding & every single Israeli in Tel Aviv is a legitimate target,” he said.
