Two men, named Yaqoub Karimpour and Nasser Bekrzadeh, convicted of spying for Israel's spy agency Mossad were executed by Iran on Saturday after their convictions were upheld by the Supreme Court of Iran and finalized through the legal process.
According to case documents, Karimpour was actively in contact with a Mossad officer during the 12-day US-Israeli onslaught against Iran in July 2025, and used to provide classified information about a number of sensitive Iranian locations and specific individuals to the Zionist regime’s spy agency in exchange for cryptocurrencies.
He received training in how to make bombs from the Mossad officer, made several, and set them off in designated areas.
The convict then sent images and videos of the explosions to his handler.
Based on his confessions, the video footage was later broadcast on the Israeli-funded so-called Iran International news channel to portray Iran as unstable.
Karimpour took pictures of garrisons and military installations, and tasked a number of people with carrying out acts of sabotage, like setting fire to ATMs, in the cities of Karaj and Mashhad in exchange for payments.
He was convicted by the Islamic Revolution Court of Muharebeh (waging war against God) and corruption on earth through cooperation with and espionage for the Tel Aviv regime.
Executions of the Israeli agents in Iran have significantly increased since last year following an imposed war which lasted 12 days.
During the Zionist regime's war on Iran in June, security agents captured several Mossad operatives in separate operations that also led to the confiscation of large amounts of explosives, remote controls and spying equipment.
Moreover, several workshops producing suicide drones linked to the Israeli secret service have been discovered by Iranian intelligence agents across the country.
Tehran has also set up a special headquarters tasked with identifying Mossad agents in Iran. A recently enhanced espionage law allows those accused of spying to face the death penalty.
Bekrzadeh, based on existing documents and evidence, visited a number of sensitive Iranian infrastructure sites across the country.
He provided the Israeli intelligence service with images and photographs of specific locations, like the Natanz uranium enrichment facility in Central Iran, as well as information related to certain authorities, religious scholars, and local officials.
