On August 30, 2025, Iranian authorities claimed the arrest of over 700 individuals allegedly connected to Israeli intelligence (Mossad) during a nationwide security operation. The arrests reportedly targeted individuals accused of espionage, gathering intelligence, and providing information during the 12-day regional conflict earlier in 2025. Iranian state media and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps stated that weapons, communication devices, and other materials were seized, and several high-profile suspects were put on trial. Independent verification of the arrests or the identities of those detained is not available.
