IRGC's Intelligence Warns Iranians Against Cooperation with Mossad
Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) intelligence organization issued on Saturday a warning that cooperation with the Mossad or the Zionist entity will result in the maximum legal punishment.
'Any form of intelligence cooperation with the Mossad is considered a criminal offense,' said an IRGC statement broadcast on the country's state television.
It also warned from 'any interaction or exchange of information with official or unofficial individuals affiliated with the Zionist regime, as well as any cultural, media, or propaganda activity, or assistance that supports, promotes, or legitimizes the Zionist regime'.
The Revolutionary Guards said these actions are considered crimes under articles 6, 7, 8, and 10 of the 'Law on Combating Hostile Actions of the Zionist Regime.'
The intelligence also noted that any perpetrators will face 'the maximum punishment.'
On Saturday, Iranian media reports said five individuals were arrested in Yazd, a central city in Iran, for allegedly filming and collaborating with Israel.
Tensions between Iran and Israel escalated on Friday amid several waves of airstrikes against each other, after the latter launched its biggest-ever air offensive in a bid to prevent its longtime foe from developing a nuclear weapon.
In a related development, Iran's security authorities arrested on Saturday several individuals allegedly tied to Israel.
According to a brief statement carried by Tasnim, 14 suspects were arrested in Hormozgan, southeastern Iran.
Officials claimed that the suspects contributed to public unrest through social media activity.
They said the detainees face charges including 'supporting and promoting the activities of the Zionist entity, spreading rumors, disturbing public opinion via social media, and carrying out propaganda activities against the regime.'
