Iran executes man accused of aiding US, Israel

Iran has executed a man accused of aiding the US and Israel during anti-government protests. The man, identified as Majid Adineh by Middle East Eye and Arutz Sheva - Israel National News, was arrested in January.

According to Middle East Eye, Adineh was charged with acting as an agent of Israel and the United States, and was accused of deliberate arson, gathering and collusion with the intention of committing crimes against the country's internal security.

The execution was carried out after an unsuccessful appeal, with the Supreme Court upholding the death sentence handed down by the Karaj Revolutionary Court, as reported by Middle East Eye.
