Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Iran’s judiciary announced on Saturday that two men found guilty of espionage for Israel and its Mossad intelligence agency have been executed.
Authorities recognized them as Yaghoub Karimpour and Naser Bakrzadeh, stating that the Supreme Court confirmed their death sentences following legal proceedings. Authorities claim Karimpour conveyed classified information to a Mossad agent during Iran’s 12-day conflict with Israel in June.
Advocacy organizations have expressed worries regarding both instances. The Hengaw Organization for Human Rights reports that Karimpour received a death sentence for “corruption on earth” related to supposed espionage and asserts he faced physical and psychological coercion to obtain confessions.
Bakrzadeh, approximately 26 years old, was detained in January 2024, as reported by HRANA, the Human Rights Activists News Agency. Bakrzadeh’s death penalty was revoked two times by Iran’s Supreme Court before he was sentenced once more, amid claims of rights abuses during his detention, according to HRANA.
