Iranian authorities announced the execution of Ehsan Afrashteh, accused of spying for Israel and receiving Mossad training in Nepal. Tehran claims he passed sensitive information about the Islamic Republic to Israeli intelligence services. Rights group HRANA, however, says the confession used in the case was fabricated. The execution comes just days after Iran hanged another alleged “CIA and Mossad double agent” linked to sensitive satellite-related scientific centres. The back-to-back executions highlight escalating tensions between Iran, Israel and the United States amid an intensifying covert intelligence confrontation.#Iran #Israel #Mossad #CIA #Tehran #Espionage #BreakingNews #IranNews #MiddleEast #SpyWar #WorldNews #IRGC #HumanRights #Geopolitics #Mizan
