Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) announced the arrest of 50 Mossad agents over the past two weeks in the southeastern province of Sistan and Baluchestan.

On Tuesday, the IRGC confirmed confiscating weapons and military ammunition, including American-made equipment that was in the possession of the detainees.

The IRGC revealed that these agents were planning to carry out acts of sabotage targeting the country’s infrastructure and economic centers.

Since the Israeli attack on Iran on June 13, Iranian authorities have continued to crack down on agents and spies across various provinces.
