State media reported that a man was put to death over the weekend after being found guilty of espionage for Israel’s intelligence service and military.
The individual was identified as Aghil Keshavarz, who was executed on Saturday, according to state media.
The 27-year-old had maintained “close intelligence cooperation” with Mossad, Israel’s national intelligence agency, and had photographed Iranian military and security installations, state media reported.
He was detained in May while photographing a military headquarters in Urmia, a city situated approximately 371 miles northwest of Tehran.
Authorities charged him with carrying out over 200 comparable missions for Mossad across multiple Iranian cities, Tehran included.
He was prosecuted and received a death sentence related to the espionage charges. State media indicated that Iran’s Supreme Court subsequently confirmed the punishment.
Iran has executed 11 people for espionage since a 12-day air conflict in June that was kicked off by Israel, killing roughly 1,100 people in Iran, including military commanders and nuclear scientists. Iran countered with a missile barrage that killed 28 people in the Jewish State.
In October, Iran put to death an unidentified individual found guilty of espionage for Israel’s intelligence service in Qom.
Various others have been executed in Iran in recent years on allegations of spying for the Mossad, including multiple earlier this year.
Iran regularly holds secret trials for individuals charged with espionage, and defendants are frequently denied access to the evidence presented by prosecutors.
