13 Mossad agents and eight employees of the Italian secret service sailed across the lake aboard the "Gooduria" Among the fatalities was an Israeli, a retired high-ranking Mossad agent – with special tasks. The boat accident is said to have uncovered a secret operation of international significance.
The meeting of the agents could also have been about the fatal cable car accident in Italy in 2021. On Pentecost Sunday, a cable car crashed west of Lake Maggiore. When a gondola crashed, 14 people were killed, including five Israelis.
