The IRGC announced the arrest of a terrorist ringleader in Ardebil, linked to the MKO, on Saturday. The arrest was made based on a judicial order in the northwestern province.
The individual had connections to anti-Iran media outlets outside the country and engaged in networking activities to serve the espionage needs of groups opposing Iran.
Days prior, authorities in Ardebil had apprehended an agent tied to the intelligence service of an unspecified neighboring country, indicating a crackdown on external threats to Iran’s security.
These recent arrests highlight Iran’s vigilance against individuals and groups seeking to undermine its stability and security through espionage and terrorist activities.
