Iranian security forces have arrested a suspected Mossad operative in Tehran, in what authorities say is part of a far-reaching Zionist plot to undermine the Islamic Republic from within. The arrest took place at Imam Khomeini metro station, according to police spokesman Saeed Montazer al-Mahdi, who confirmed the man was apprehended while attempting to coordinate drone-related espionage.

The suspect was reportedly "assembling drones in the western province of Tehran and sending [to Israel] messages about the work of the country's air defense," Montazer al-Mahdi told state broadcaster IRIB. He also revealed that the individual had shared strategic coordinates of vital Iranian infrastructure with the Israeli regime, a serious breach of national security.

This arrest comes amid a wider intelligence operation during which Iranian security agencies detained over 700 individuals linked to Mossad throughout the recent 12-day war. The crackdown represents one of the most extensive domestic counterintelligence campaigns in the country's history.

Authorities have reported the seizure of over 10,000 small drones in Tehran alone, along with evidence linking the arrestees to efforts to deploy suicide drones, manufacture hand grenades, film military sites, and transmit critical data to the Israeli occupation army. Intelligence sources say the sabotage network was deeply embedded across multiple provinces, including Kermanshah, Isfahan, Khuzestan, Fars, and Lorestan.

The Zionist regime's drone and espionage campaign unfolded alongside a military assault launched on June 13, when Israeli forces initiated unprovoked attacks on Iranian soil under the pretext of targeting a so-called secret nuclear weapons program.

In response, Iran launched precise retaliatory strikes, targeting Israeli military infrastructure and, later, US assets after Washington joined the aggression with a one-time strike on June 22. Iran's measured response, including a missile attack on the US Al Udeid base in Qatar, was accompanied by a firm statement that Tehran seeks no further escalation, only the protection of its sovereignty.

Following the exchange, US President Donald Trump stated that Iran had "let off steam" and confirmed that a ceasefire agreement had been reached between Tehran and Tel Aviv, ending what Iranian media described as another failed campaign of Zionist military adventurism.
