Iran Executes Convicted Israeli Spy Amid Regional Tensions

The unnamed individual was hanged after a final appeal was denied, following a conviction for passing classified information to Israel's Mossad.

Iran has executed a man convicted of spying for Israel's Mossad intelligence agency.
The unnamed man was hanged at the Zahedan Central Prison in Iran's southeastern Sistan-Baluchistan province.
Iran convicted the man of collecting classified information and passing it to the Mossad using a series of middlemen.
A final appeal to the Supreme Court of Iran was denied early Saturday and the sentence carried out the same day.
The execution comes a day after 11 Iranian police officers were killed in a single attack in Sistan-Baluchistan province.
