The '''Mossad''' ({{lang-he|המוסד}}, {{lang-ar|الموساد}}) is the national [[intelligence agency]] of [[Israel]].
Its full name is '''Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations''' ({{lang-he|המוסד למודיעין ולתפקידים מיוחדים}} ''HaMossad leModi'in uleTafkidim Meyuchadim'', {{lang-ar|الموساد للاستخبارات والمهام الخاصة}} ''al-Mūssād li'l-Istikhbārāt wa'l-Mahāmm al-Khāṣṣa''). "Mossad" is a Hebrew word for institute or institution.

The Mossad gathers intelligence information and performs covert operations, which include [[paramilitary]] activities.
It is one of the main entities in the [[Israeli Intelligence Community]], along with [[Military Intelligence Directorate (Israel)|Aman]] ([[military intelligence]]) and [[Shin Bet]] (internal security), but its director reports directly to the [[Prime Minister of Israel|Prime Minister]].
