Iranian state media reported the execution of two men, identified as Omid Behzad and Pourya Safwat, following convictions related to espionage. The judicial authorities accused the pair of colluding with Israel’s intelligence service, Mossad, by allegedly sharing sensitive military and security coordinates, as well as photographic evidence of restricted sites.

The reports indicate that these activities took place last year, leading to the legal proceedings that resulted in the death sentences. While Iranian state-affiliated outlets characterize these actions as a significant breach of national security, the report from Middle East Eye provides the basic details of the charges without independent verification of the trial process or the evidence presented in court. There is currently no public information regarding the legal defense provided to the accused or the specific timeline of their detention prior to the execution. The report focuses strictly on the state's official account of the charges and the subsequent carrying out of the sentence.
