Dozens arrested in Iran over 'links' with Israel: Media

TEHRAN: Iranian authorities have arrested dozens across the country on suspicion of cooperating with Israel, local media reported on Sunday. "Twenty people were arrested and detained" after they were found to be "sending details of military, law enforcement and security locations to the Zionist enemy," the Fars news agency said, quoting provincial prosecutor Hossein Majidi. Those arrests took place during raids on networks linked to Israel in West Azerbaijan province, it added. At least 18 people were also arrested over "sending images of locations bombed by Israel and the US" and other sites to the London-based TV channel Iran International, the Tasnim news agency said, quoting the intelligence ministry. In Jan, Iran banned cooperation with Iran International, saying it was "affiliated with the Zionist regime".
