Iranian authorities will confiscate the properties and impose penalities of members of the Iranian diaspora who “cooperate” with Israel and the United States, the judiciary said on Monday.

“Iranians abroad who align, accompany and cooperate with the American-Zionist aggressor enemy will face confiscation of all their property and other legal penalties in accordance with the law,” the judiciary’s Mizan Online website said, quoting the prosecutor general’s office.

Mizan cited a law adopted after the 12-day war in June with Israel, which saw the United States briefly joining with strikes.
