Iran has executed a man convicted of spying for Israeli intelligence and the military, state media reported on Saturday.
The man, identified as 27 year old Aghil Keshavarz, was accused of working closely with Israel’s intelligence agency Mossad.
Authorities said he took photos of Iranian military and security sites across the country.
Keshavarz was arrested in May while photographing a military headquarters in Urmia, around 600 kilometers northwest of Tehran.
Officials claimed he carried out more than 200 similar missions, including in the capital, Tehran. Reports also said he had studied architecture.
A court sentenced him to death, and the verdict was later confirmed by Iran’s Supreme Court.
Since June, Iran has executed at least 11 people on espionage charges.
These executions followed a 12 day conflict with Israel that reportedly killed nearly 1,100 people in Iran and 28 in Israel. In Iran, trials of suspected spies are usually held behind closed doors, with little public access to case details.
