Iran says alleged Mossad spy arrested in Tehran metro

Jun 26, 2025, 08:55 GMT+1

Iranian authorities have arrested an alleged Mossad agent in the Tehran metro, saying he was transmitting the locations of sensitive and military sites using an electronic chip, state-run IRIB reported on Thursday.

IRIB quoted a police spokesperson as saying the man was detained after officers grew suspicious of his movements.

The report said that he allegedly received instructions in Hebrew and sent location data to unknown contacts.

The suspect and his equipment were handed over to specialized police units for further investigation, the report added.
