In 2019, the MI6 contracted the ICA for the assassination of Viktor Novikov and Dalia Margolis, the heads of IAGO. This was in retaliation for the theft by IAGO of a list of non-official cover operatives, which Margolis was preparing to sell to the highest bidder.
Real World Information[]
MI6 was created in 1912 by Commander Mansfield Cumming as part of Britain’s initiative to coordinate intelligence activities prior to World War I. The abbreviation “MI6” denoted that the agency was “section six” of military intelligence, with other sections concentrating on more specialized fields. Despite its name, its members are not part of the armed forces, and the agency itself reports to the UK's Foreign Office. MI6 collects and analyzes intelligence from around the world that may affect British affairs. It operates spies in foreign countries and has the ability to run counter-terrorist or covert operations against threats to the United Kingdom.
