Iran’s judiciary said it hung on Monday a man arrested in 2023 and convicted of being an agent for Israel’s Mossad spy agency, as fighting raged between the two arch-nemeses.

“Esmaeil Fekri, a Mossad agent convicted of the capital offences of ‘corruption on earth’ and ‘moharebeh’ (waging war against God) was hung after going through the full process of criminal procedure,” the judciary’s Mizan Online news website said.
