Iran Executes Four Accused of Spying for Israel's Mossad

The executions follow an alleged Israeli airstrike that killed a high-ranking Iranian general in Syria.

  • Iran executed four individuals, including one woman, accused of spying for Israel's Mossad and committing acts of sabotage.
  • The group was charged with kidnapping Iranian security forces to extract intelligence and setting fire to cars and apartments of some agents.
  • The executions come less than a week after an alleged Israeli airstrike killed a high-ranking Iranian general in Syria.
  • Several others accused of working with the same group were each sentenced to a decade in jail.
  • Iran has been criticized for its high rate of executions, with more than 600 people executed so far this year.
