Iran makes more arrests over alleged support for Israel

Jun 19, 2025, 13:12 GMT+1

Authorities in Iran arrested eight people in Yazd province for allegedly supporting Israel, the provincial police chief said Thursday, marking the latest in a wave of detentions tied to online activity.

Earlier the same day, Kerman’s police commander announced the arrest of four more citizens—one woman and three men—on similar charges.

At least 160 Iranians have been detained over the past six days for social media posts related to Israeli strikes on the Islamic Republic, according to the human rights group HRANA.
