Iran executes two men for spying for Israel

Iran executed two men on Saturday accused of spying ‌for Israel, including one accused of gathering intelligence near the Natanz nuclear site in central ⁠Isfahan province, Iranian media reported.

They quoted the judiciary as saying Yaghoub Karimpour and Nasser Bakarzadeh were hanged after being found guilty of intelligence ‌cooperation ⁠with Israel and its spy agency, Mossad.

They said Karimpour passed sensitive information to ⁠a Mossad officer, while Bakarzadeh was accused of collecting ⁠details on government and religious figures and ⁠key sites, including in the Natanz area.
