"We assess that Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman approved an operation in Istanbul, Turkey to capture or kill Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi. We base this assessment on the Crown Prince's control of decision-making in the Kingdom since 2017, the direct involvement of a key adviser and members of Muhammad bin Salman's protective detail in the operation, and the Crown Prince's support for using violent measures to silence dissidents abroad, including Khashoggi. Since 2017, the Crown Prince has had absolute control of the Kingdom's security and intelligence organizations, making it highly unlikely that Saudi officials would have carried out an operation of this nature without the Crown Prince's authorization."--Executive summary 606 $aAssassination$zTurkey$zIstanbul 607 $aSaudi Arabia$xForeign relations$y21st century 607 $aSaudi Arabia$xPolitics and government 615 0$aAssassination 712 02$aUnited States.$bOffice of the Director of National Intelligence, 801 0$bSTF 801 1$bSTF 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910715325003321 996 $aAssessing the Saudi government's role in the killing of Jamal Khashoggi$93296616 997 $aUNINA
