Iran
executed six members of a “separatist group” accused of carrying out deadly
attacks and collaborating with Israel’s intelligence agency, the Judiciary
Media Center said on Friday.
According to
the statement, the six men were convicted of “terrorist activities” in
Khuzestan, a southwestern province bordering Iraq that has experienced sporadic
unrest and clashes between security forces and local armed factions. The
executions were carried out at dawn after their death sentences were upheld by
the Supreme Court.
Authorities
described the network as being “affiliated with the Zionist regime,” and its
members had maintained contact with foreign elements “hostile to Iran.”
The
judiciary revealed that the group had carried out several violent operations,
including the assassination of four security officers — Allahnazar Safari,
Mohammad Reza Rafiei Nasab, Ali Salehimajd, and Younes Bahr — as well as
bombings and armed assaults targeting public places and banks in the province.
The men also confessed to detonating a gas station in Khorramshahr, throwing
grenades at a military site, and shooting at mosques, according to the
statement.

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, the authorities
announced at least ten executions of people alleged to have spied for Israel’s
Mossad.
Last month,
Iran’s judiciary-run news agency Mizan reported the execution of Bahman
Choobiasl, described as “one of the most important spies for Israel in Iran.”
The agency said he had met Mossad officials and provided them with sensitive
information.
Rights
groups, including Iran Human Rights (based in Oslo) and the Abdorrahman
Boroumand Centre (based in Washington, D.C.), estimate that more than 1,000
people have been executed in Iran so far in 2025, warning that the actual
number may be higher as many cases are not officially disclosed.
