As the conflict between Iran and Israel entered its tenth day, Iranian authorities on Sunday executed a man convicted of spying for Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency, according to the country's judiciary.
"Majid Mosayebi... was hanged this morning after going through the full process of criminal procedure and after his sentence was confirmed by the Supreme Court," the judiciary-run Mizan online website reported.
He had been accused of attempting to provide sensitive information to Mossad.
Mosayebi’s case is the latest in a series of similar executions. In May, Iranian authorities executed Mohsen Langarneshin Pedram Madani, also convicted of spying for Mossad.
Since Israel's attack on June 13, Iranian authorities have made several arrests of individuals suspected of spying for Israel.
The execution also comes the same day as US bombed Iran's nuclear facilities, following which, Iran carried out retaliatory strikes on Tel Aviv and targeted strategic sites in Israel.
Iran’s revolutionary guards said they won’t be intimidated by the noise made by Trump ‘or criminal gangs ruling the White House and Tel Aviv’ and warned that US has places itself directly 'at the front line of aggression' by attacking nuclear sites.
