Iran executes four accused of working with Israeli intelligence

Al Jazeera  

The individuals allegedly received payment in cryptocurrencies to buy weapons and engage in kidnappings. Tehran, Iran – Iran has executed four people and handed prison sentences to three others accused of working with Israeli intelligence. The four individuals – identified as Hossein Ordoukhanzadeh, Shahin Imani Mahmoudabad, Milad Ashrafi Atbatan, and Manouchehr Shahbandi Bojandi – were hanged early on Sunday, according to the official news website of the judiciary. They allegedly received payment in the form of cryptocurrencies and bought weapons and equipment while receiving training on how to destroy evidence, evade security cameras, and swap vehicles, something the Iranian judiciary said underlines Mossad’s role. Iran has accused the US, Israel, the United Kingdom, France, Germany and Saudi Arabia of being behind the unrest, and 40 foreign nationals have been arrested during “riots” since September, according to the judiciary.
