Iran Executes Two Men for Espionage Allegedly Aiding Israeli Mossad
Iran executed two men by hanging on the morning of the report after convicting them of spying for Israel's Mossad during recent military conflicts. The men, identified as Amid Behzad and Pouria Sepavat, were accused of providing the locations of military sites to the Israeli intelligence agency. Their death sentences were upheld by Iran's Supreme Court, according to a judicial news outlet linked to Iran's legal system.
The court statement described Pouria Sepavat as "one of Netanyahu's soldiers and a traitor to the country," who collaborated with the Zionist regime by sending coordinates of military and security sites to Mossad's international network during wartime. Iranian prosecutors cited intercepted messages from Sepavat to Mossad, including one mentioning video footage of drone and fighter jet attacks that could not be sent due to poor internet connectivity. The message ended with a phrase thanking "the soldiers of the Prophet Moses." The executions underscore Tehran's ongoing crackdown on alleged espionage activities amid heightened regional tensions.
