Iran executes man for spying for Israel

Iran has executed Mehdi Farid, a 48-year-old former employee of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), on charges of spying for Israel's Mossad. Farid was reportedly the head of the civil defense committee within the AEOI, a position that would have provided access to sensitive security information. The execution underscores the Iranian regime's continued crackdown on alleged espionage, particularly targeting individuals with ties to critical infrastructure. This case follows a recent pattern of arrests and executions related to accusations of working for foreign intelligence services.
