Iranian security forces have arrested dozens of individuals across multiple provinces on charges related to collaboration with the Israeli occupation amid an ongoing Israeli military campaign against the Islamic Republic.

In a statement issued on Monday, police in the central province of Isfahan announced the arrest of four individuals suspected of working with the Israeli regime and revealed the discovery of a drone and model aircraft manufacturing workshop. Authorities reported the seizure of a significant quantity of equipment and spare parts used in the production of unmanned aerial vehicles.

Additionally, in the northern province of Qazvin, Iranian security agencies confirmed the detention of five individuals accused of fomenting unrest and supporting the ongoing Israeli aggression against Iran.

According to Tasnim news agency, Isfahan’s cyber police also uncovered a network of 60 individuals allegedly engaged in disinformation campaigns designed to disrupt public order and serve the interests of the Israeli regime.

Several suspects arrested

An Al Mayadeen correspondent in Iran reported the arrest of several individuals accused of participating in the Israeli attack on Lorestan Province in western Iran. Details of the operation remain undisclosed.

Meanwhile, Iranian state media reported the execution of Esmail Fekri, a man convicted of espionage for the Israeli Mossad intelligence agency. Authorities emphasized that his case was not linked to the latest wave of arrests following the most recent Israeli aggression.

Iran dismantles Mossad-linked cells

On Sunday, Iranian security forces announced the dismantling of Mossad-linked espionage and propaganda cells in Tehran, Isfahan, and Kerman. In Alborz Province, west of the capital, two individuals were apprehended on charges of spying for the Israeli occupation.

In Isfahan, authorities detained 16 suspects accused of supporting the Israeli offensive through online propaganda and anti-government activity. In Kerman, two people were arrested for allegedly endorsing the Israeli regime’s violent actions.

These arrests are being conducted under Iran’s law for confronting hostile acts by the Israeli occupation, specifically Articles 6, 7, 8, and 10, which criminalize any form of intelligence, media, or propaganda cooperation with the Israeli regime and impose severe penalties.
