  "summary": "Iran has executed three men accused of carrying out operations on behalf of Israel and the United States during January's nationwide anti-government protests, according to the Islamic Republic's judiciary. The men, Hassan Divband, Hamid Kazemi, and Reza Zanganeh, were convicted of participating in armed attacks, arson, and the destruction of public infrastructure during demonstrations in Karaj, west of Tehran, on January 8 and 9. The executions come in the latest round of punishments for those detained in connection with the uprising, with state-affiliated Tasnim News Agency reporting that investigators recovered firearms, knives, Molotov cocktails, and homemade explosive devices in connection with the men's alleged activities.",
