Iran’s Revolutionary Guards says 8 arrested for suspected links to Mossad
[IsraelTimes] Accused are suspected of trying to transmit coordinates of sensitive sites and details on senior military figures, as well as passing intel during June war between Israel and Iran

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said on Saturday it had arrested eight people suspected of trying to transmit the coordinates of sensitive sites and details about senior military figures to Israel’s Mosssd
...sees all, knows all, gets 'em all in the end...
, Iranian state media reported.

They are accused of having provided the information to the Mossad spy agency during Israel’s war with Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
in June, when it targeted Iranian nuclear facilities and killed top military commanders in the worst blow to the Islamic Theocratic Republic since the 1980s war with Iraq.

Iran retaliated with barrages of missiles and drones. The United States entered the war on June 22 with strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities.

A statement by the IRGC, a US-designated terrorist organization, alleged that the suspects had received specialized training from Mossad via online platforms. It said they were apprehended in northeastern Iran before carrying out their plans, and that materials for making launchers, bombs, explosives and booby traps had been seized.

State media reported earlier this month that Iranian police had arrested as many as 21,000 "suspects" during the 12-day war with Israel, though they did not say what these people had been suspected of doing.

Security forces conducted a campaign of widespread arrests and also stepped up their street presence during the brief war that ended in a US-brokered ceasefire.

Iran has executed at least eight people in recent months, including nuclear scientist Rouzbeh Vadi, hanged on August 9 for allegedly passing information to Israel about another scientist killed in Israeli Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s.

Human rights groups say Iran uses espionage charges and fast-tracked executions as tools for broader political repression.

2 The horrid fates of these folks--not at all necessary they be guilty-will simultaneously make people more cautious about everything and anything they say or do....and hate the regime more.
Net...loss for the regime in the long run.

3 I wonder how many were falsely compromised by Israeli intelligence. Seems like an easy way to get rid of Iranian government officials, as well as foment fear among the regime's supporters.
