[Rudaw] Iran’s judiciary announced on Monday the execution of a death row prisoner accused of providing intelligence to the CIA and Israeli Mossad on the activities of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in Syria and the movements of its slain commander Qassem Soleimani
 .
Sayyid Mahmoud Mousavi Majd was detained prior to the liquidation of Soleimani in early January at Baghdad International Airport, but authorities in Tehran maintain that Majd provided information about the movement of Iran’s elite Quds Force in Syria. The now-deceased prisoner's confession was aired on Iranian state TV.
