Iran Executes Three for Spying for Israel

H-Tayea Iran has executed three men convicted of spying for Israel, just one day after the announcement of a fragile ceasefire between Tehran and Tel Aviv. The Iranian judiciary stated that the individuals—Idris Ali, Azad Shojaei, and Rasoul Ahmad Rasoul—were hanged early Wednesday morning after being found guilty of collaborating with Israel's intelligence services. According to the official statement, the men were involved in attempts to import equipment intended for carrying out assassinations inside Iran. Authorities accused them of working with what they referred to as 'the Zionist entity,' and said the executions were part of Iran's response to foreign-backed threats to its internal security. The timing of the executions has raised concerns about the stability of the newly brokered ceasefire. The truce, announced just a day earlier by U.S. President Donald Trump, has been described as tentative, with both sides expressing conditional commitment. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian affirmed that his government will respect the ceasefire as long as Israel does not violate it. In a phone call with Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, Pezeshkian said, 'If the Zionist regime respects the ceasefire, Iran will not violate it either.' read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean

Iran executes three over alleged Mossad links

Shafaq News/ Iranian authorities announced on Wednesday the execution of three individuals accused of spying for Israel's Mossad and plotting the assassination of a senior figure within the country. The executions took place in the city of Urmia, in West Azerbaijan province, a location that Israel heavily bombarded in the last 12-day conflict. The executed men—Idris Ali, Azad Shojaei, and Rasoul Ahmad—were reportedly arrested while attempting to smuggle equipment suspected to be used in explosive attacks, concealed under a shipment of alcoholic beverages. 'According to the same reports, the three were apprehended for allegedly trafficking devices suspected of being intended for assassination operations inside Iran.' According to Iranian media outlets, the authorities arrested more than 700 people in recent days, as Tehran intensifies its efforts to dismantle what it claims are foreign espionage networks operating inside the country. The reports also revealed that Iranian security and intelligence agencies have arrested over 700 individuals within 12 days, accusing them of espionage and collaboration with Israel. The arrests were concentrated in the provinces of Kermanshah, Isfahan, Khuzestan, Fars, and Lorestan.

Iran flag Iran on Wednesday executed three men convicted of spying for Israel's intelligence agency, Mossad, and smuggling equipment used in an assassination, according to the judiciary's Mizan news agency. The individuals, Idris Ali, Azad Shojai, and Rasoul Ahmad Rasoul, were executed in Urmia, a city in north-western Iran near the Turkish border. The smuggled equipment was used in the killing of an unnamed target, but no further details were provided, reported Reuters quoting Mizan.
