“These individuals were identified as operatives and deceived participants in the recent imposed war by the Zionist regime have been arrested by the Intelligence Organization of the Hazrat Vali Asr Corps,” Iranian state media Fars news agency said on Wednesday.

“Most of them have confessed to their actions, including anti-security activities, spreading public anxiety, and acts of sabotage,” it added, citing a statement by the organisation.
