Tehran has intensified its crackdown on individuals accused of espionage or collaboration with Israel following the 12-day war in June with Tel Aviv. Since then, authorities have reported at least ten executions of people alleged to have spied for Israel’s Mossad.
Rights groups, including Iran Human Rights (based in Oslo) and the Abdorrahman Boroumand Centre (based in Washington, DC), estimate that more than 1,000 people have been executed in Iran so far in 2025, cautioning that the actual number may be higher as many cases are not officially disclosed.
