Iran Police Commander Ahmad Reza Radan says that the police have made "heavy blows" to an Israeli "spying network" inside the country, APA reports citing the semi-official Mehr News Agency.
One person affiliated with Mossad, Israel’s intelligence agency, has been arrested in Iran’s western Kordestan province, he says.
Iran has had a major escalation in arrests linked to Israel in recent days.
An unspecified number of people have been detained on related charges since Israel’s attacks on Iran started.
The arrests have been made in several provinces in the country, including but not limited to Tehran, Isfahan, and Markazi.
Yesterday, Iranian outlets reported on the arrest of a “foreign national” allegedly filming the Bushehr nuclear plant for Israel’s intelligence agency, Mossad. The person’s citizenship has not been announced yet.
Iran Attorney General’s Office warned on Sunday that anyone found cooperating with Israel would face the "severest punishments" under Iranian law.
On Monday, a man accused of spying for Mossad was executed in Iran.
The BBC cannot independently verify the accuracy of charges against those arrested in Iran on Israel-related accusations.
