Recent documents released by the U.S. House Oversight Committee have revealed new details about Jeffrey Epstein's extensive involvement in international intelligence operations, particularly his role in facilitating security agreements between Israel and several nations, including Mongolia and Côte d’Ivoire, as well as establishing a covert backchannel with Russia during the Syrian Civil War.
These revelations come amid a broader investigation into Epstein’s network, which includes revelations of collusion with journalists to monitor and smear Donald Trump during his first term.
The child sex trafficer is also linked to senior Israeli military intelligence officer and lieutenant colonel in reserve duty, Yoni Koren, who stayed at Epstein’s Manhattan apartment for multiple weeks between 2013 and 2016, acting as an intermediary between Israeli and U.S. intelligence officials.
Koren, who served as a top aide to former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and had ties to former CIA Director Leon Panetta, stayed at the Manhattan apartment on three separate occasions between 2013 and 2015. His presence was confirmed through Epstein’s personal calendars and leaked emails from Barak’s inbox.
Epstein’s personal calendar, released by the House Oversight Committee, shows Koren met with Barak multiple times, including an urgent, last-minute meeting on February 20, 2015, and was involved in a wire transfer to Koren’s Citibank account, with Barak sending Epstein bank details for the transfer.
In February 2015, Barak sent Epstein bank details for a wire transfer to Koren’s Citibank account, followed by cryptic instructions for Koren to pick up a package containing headphones and a bank card from a Manhattan hotel, and referencing "Rachel Levin" in potentially operational language, suggesting possible intelligence-related handoffs.
The revelations suggest Epstein was basically acting as a key Mossad asset for advancing Israel’s hawkish foreign policy goals, with the dynamic appearing to be Barak chasing Epstein rather than the other way around. His personal calendars and leaked emails further show he coordinated high-level meetings, including a private White House and Pentagon tour for Barak, complete with Secret Service escorts and National Security Council guides—via contacts like Jeremy Bash (ex-CIA/Department of War chief of staff).
These activities occurred under NSA surveillance, per Edward Snowden leaks, with emails using cryptic phrasing suggestive of dead drops or information exchanges. Koren's background includes 1980s Mossad operations to kidnap PLO figures and post-retirement work in cybersecurity brokering.
These ties were built on Epstein's post-2008 conviction network, where Barak relied on him despite the child sex trafficker's notoriety. Epstein's New York apartment served as a hub for such operations, blending elite access with covert activities.
Playing a central role in brokering a formal security agreement between Israel and Mongolia, Epstein leveraged his connections with figures like former U.S. Treasury Secretary Larry Summers to serve on Mongolia’s Presidential Advisory Board and facilitate the purchase of Israeli surveillance technology and military equipment.
The child sex trafficker facilitated a deal for Côte d’Ivoire to purchase Israeli surveillance technology used to monitor phone calls, radio transmissions, and public spaces like cybercafes, a move that coincided with President Alassane Ouattara’s consolidation of power and suppression of dissent.
Epstein helped Israel establish a backchannel with the Russian government during the Syrian Civil War, a process coordinated with Israeli intelligence that ultimately led to a meeting between Barak and Russian President Vladimir Putin, with Barak thanking Epstein for “setting the whole thing together.”
The House Oversight Committee also released emails from 2011 showing Epstein referring to Trump as a “dog that hasn’t barked,” questioning why the then president had not condemned him publicly at that time, since Trump would have gotten some information about the child sex trafficer's past from survivor Virginia Giuffre who died allegedly by suicide in April.
Giuffre cleared Trump according to a transcript of a deposition with the victim of Epstein, and Laura Menninger, the attorney for Ghislaine Maxwell, who inquired as to whether Trump was a client.
According to the files, Menninger questioned witness Johanna Sjoberg about whether Trump had ever been "in sexual contact" with her.
Sjoberg said, "No."
Republican memebers of the House Oversight committee identified Giuffre in the latest redacted documents, and accused Democrat colleagues of hiding her name because she had testified that Trump did nothing wrong.
In her book, Giuffre writes that her father, who was maintenance worker at Trump's Mar-a-Lago in 2000, got her a job as a locker room attendant. She wrote: "Trump couldn't have been friendlier, telling me it was fantastic that I was there. 'Do you like kids?' he asked. 'Do you babysit at all?' He explained that he owned several houses next to the resort that he lent to friends, many of whom had children who needed tending."
The lreleased documents reveal Epstein actively feeding damaging information about Donald Trump to journalists from 2017–2021, often to undermine him amid his presidency. This was a pattern of sharing scandals, mental health speculation, and compromising claims—coordinated via emails with reporters, authors, and associates like Ghislaine Maxwell.
The child sex trafficker, who once called himself Trump's "closest friend," turned critical post-2016 election, viewing Trump as a rival. However it has been reported and Trump confirmed that he banned Epstein from his clubs after he found out he's "creep" and a predator.
Epstein emailed a New York Times reporter in 2015, he could produce compromat like photos of donald and girls in bikinis, and claimed there was a woman both allegedly dated in the 1990s.
In a January 2017 email to a NYT reporter, the child sex trafficker Called Trump "fucking crazy" after the Muslim travel ban; speculated he has "early dementia?" in a 2018 email; and labeled Trump "borderline insane" to Summers and "the most dishonest human being I have ever met."
While the House Oversight Committee released documents showing Epstein’s ties to Israeli intelligence, the broader left-wing media has largely ignored these findings despite their public availability, prompting criticism.
The U.S. House of Representatives is preparing to vote on a resolution demanding the release of the remaining Epstein files.
Epstein's web spanned finance, politics, and espionage, with Israeli ties amplifying his fixer role. Post-2008 plea deal (criticized in earlier releases), he rebuilt via Barak, whom he met through mutual elites. His 2019 arrest exposed trafficking, but files like these (from estate subpoenas) reveal untapped influence operations.
Investigations by House committees continue, with calls for unredacted releases. No charges have stemmed directly from these latest documents, but critics point to it as an example of liberal political elite impunity.
