Iranian officials<\/a> executed a man over the weekend who was convicted of spying for Israel’s intelligence arm and its army, according to state media.<\/p>\n

The man was Aghil Keshavarz, who was put to death on Saturday, state media reported.<\/p>\n

Keshavarz, 27, had “close intelligence cooperation” with the Mossad \u2014 the national intelligence agency for Israel \u2014 and captured photos of Iranian military and security areas, according to state media.<\/p>\n

Keshavarz was arrested in May while taking pictures of a military headquarters in the city of Urmia, located about 371 miles northwest of Iran’s capital of Tehran.<\/p>\n

He was accused of engaging in more than 200 similar assignments for the Mossad in various Iranian cities, including Tehran.<\/p>\n

Keshavarz was tried and sentenced to death in connection with the spying accusations. The country’s Supreme Court later upheld the sentence, according to state media.<\/p>\n

Iran has executed<\/a> 11 people for espionage since a 12-day air conflict in June that was kicked off by Israel, killing roughly 1,100 people in Iran, including military commanders and nuclear scientists. Iran countered with a missile barrage that killed 28 people in the Jewish State.<\/p>\n

In October, Iran executed an unknown person convicted of spying for Israel’s intelligence agency in the city of Qom.<\/p>\n

Various others have been executed in Iran in recent years before the June conflict<\/a> on allegations of spying for the Mossad, including multiple earlier this year.<\/p>\n

Iran routinely conducts closed-door trials of people accused of espionage, with the suspects often unable to access the evidence prosecutors used against them in their case.<\/p>\n
