Iran executes 2 people on charges of spying for Mossad

Iran executed two men convicted of cooperating with Israel’s Mossad intelligence service and planning attacks inside the country, The Jerusalem Post writes, citing the news outlet Mizan.

Mizan said the two, identified as Mohammad Masoum Shahi and Hamed Validi, were accused of belonging to a spy network linked to Mossad and had received training abroad, including in Iraq’s Kurdistan region.

Additionally, two weeks ago, Iran executed two men convicted of attempting to storm a military facility and access an armory during unrest in January, Mizan said.
