Israeli police have arrested three men accused of scamming €8 million (£6.8 million) from a businessman by impersonating the French foreign minister, BBC reports.
The
suspects, said to be French-Israelis, reportedly created a replica of Jean-Yves Le Drian's Paris office in Israel to conduct Skype calls.
They allegedly told targets that the money was needed for secret operations and to pay ransom money for hostages in Syria and Mali.
All three men deny any involvement.
