Iran arrests dozens of people accused of being informants for Israel

Dozens of people accused of sharing sensitive information with Israel have been arrested in several areas of Iran, local media reported on Sunday, as Israeli and U.S. fighter jets continue to strike new targets in the country.

In northwestern Iran, the semi-official Tasnim news agency reported on Sunday that 20 people were arrested on accusations by the provincial prosecutor's office of sending location details on Iran's military and ⁠security assets to Israel.

In northeastern Iran, which has remained relatively untouched by air strikes, Tasnim reported the arrest of 10 people on Sunday, with some accused of collecting information on sensitive locations and economic infrastructure.

"As the Zionist enemy (Israel) and the U.S. are attempting to invade Iran, they simultaneously activate mercenaries and spies to carry out riots as the next step," a provincial branch of the Revolutionary Guards' intelligence organization said, according ⁠to Tasnim.
