Iran has carried out the execution of two men, Mohammad Masoum Shahi and Hamed Validi, after they were convicted of spying for Israel's Mossad agency and plotting attacks inside the country. According to the judiciary's news outlet Mizan, the men were part of a spy network trained abroad, including in Iraq's Kurdistan region. Their convictions included charges of enmity against God and collaboration with hostile groups, with their death sentences confirmed by Iran’s Supreme Court and then executed.

Previously, Iran executed two others, Mohammadamin Biglari and Shahin Vahedparast, for attempting to breach a military facility amidst ongoing unrest. Rights organizations like Amnesty International have reported that eleven individuals face imminent execution for participating in anti-government protests, with allegations of torture and unfair trials. These developments highlight Iran's severe measures against alleged enemies and protesters amidst ongoing internal tensions.
