Iranian authorities announced today that they had dismantled a spy network run by Israeli and American intelligence services, several months after the war between the Islamic Republic and its sworn enemy, Israel.
"A network run by American and Israeli intelligence services has been identified in the country and dismantled," the intelligence service of the Revolutionary Guard, Iran's ideological army, said.
The service added that the operation was carried out in a coordinated manner in several provinces, but did not specify the date, exact locations, or whether any arrests were made.
In June, Israel carried out attacks on Iran, killing several hundred people, including senior military officials and nuclear scientists.
Tehran retaliated with missile and drone attacks on Israel, killing more than 25 people.
The US, an ally of Israel, has also carried out attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities.
The ceasefire between Iran and Israel has been in effect since June 24th.
In recent months, Iranian authorities have announced several arrests for espionage and the execution of several people convicted of collaborating with the Mossad.
The law, which came into effect in October, now tightens sanctions against individuals accused of spying for Israel, but also for the US, an enemy for four decades.
