Iran executed four people who "planned an attack in the name of the Mossad" The four were accused of illegally entering the country's territory from the Kurdish region in Iraq. They planned to blow up a defense plant in the city of Isfahan in the summer of 2022.

The Mossad has been linked to a series of assassinations of nuclear scientists and mysterious explosions in Iran since the beginning of the previous decade, as part of Israel's fight against Iran's nuclear and weapons program.
