Iranian state media is reporting that Iran executed two people on Monday on charges of espionage and cooperation with Israel, according to Reuters.
Omid Behzad and Pouria Safvat were accused of sending Israel the coordinates of military and security sites in addition to images and information in the latest conflict that began 28 February as well as during the brief war last summer, judiciary news outlet Mizan reported.
A source briefed on Israel’s military strategy told Reuters in March that Israel targeted checkpoints manned by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps during the current conflict based on intelligence from informants on the ground.
Iran has executed at least 50 p[eople in the past four months on vague national security charges, including several 18- and 19-year-olds, Human Rights Watch reported last month. In January, Iranian authorities quelled a period of nationwide unrest by killing thousands of protesters.
