Israeli Defense minister Moshe Yaalon, left, and his Cypriot counterpart Fotis Fotiou shake hands during their statements to the media after their meeting at the Defense ministry in capital Nicosia, Cyprus, Wednesday, Feb. 24, 2016. Israel’s defense minister is accusing Iran of building an international terror network that includes ‘sleeper cells’ stockpiling arms, intelligence and operatives that are ready to strike on command in places including Europe and the U.S. Yaalon says Iran aims to destabilize the Middle East and other parts of the world and is training, funding and arming “emissaries” to spread revolution. He also says Tehran is the anchor of a “dangerous axis” that includes Baghdad, Damascus, Beirut, Saana and other cities in the region. (AP Photo/Petros Karadjias)
