IRGC intelligence forces capture 4 Mossad spies, dismantle terror teams in Iran
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) intelligence forces have captured four people in the northern province of Gilan on charges of spying for the Israeli spy agency Mossad, and dismantled terror teams in the southeastern part of the country.
According to a statement released by the Public Relations Department of the provincial IRGC Quds Force on Wednesday, the arrestees were each in contact with Mossad intelligence officers, gathering intelligence on sensitive security and military installations.
They would then take pictures of the sites and share their relevant coordinates with Mossad officers via social media platforms.
The detainees have been handed over to judicial authorities to face due legal procedures.
The statement said the IRGC intelligence and security forces are closely monitoring all movements and attempts by individuals affiliated with foreign intelligence services, and all such operatives will be detected and harshly dealt with.
Separately, Iranian intelligence and security forces have managed to detect and dismantle a number of terror teams in the southeastern province of Sistan and Balouchestan since the onset of the illegal, imposed US-Israeli war on the Islamic Republic on February 28.
The IRGC Quds Base announced in a statement that 55 terrorists have been apprehended ever since, and another 13 have been eliminated.
The statement said that the terror teams sought to carry out acts of sabotage concurrent with the US-Israeli aerial assaults.
They were, however, arrested during separate operations before any terrorist attack, and a considerable amount of ammunition, assault rifles, explosives and communications devices were seized from them.
The statement said the terrorists reportedly intended to plant and set off roadside bombs, attack military installations, assassinate senior officials, and identify critical infrastructure to be targeted by US-Israeli strikes.
