Iran has executed two Iranian citizens accused of spying for Israel and transferring information on sensitive military and security locations, Reuters reported, citing the state-affiliated Fars News Agency. The report was published on August 3, 2026, and said the allegations concerned actions during an ongoing wartime situation.

According to the report, the two men were accused of sending coordinates of sensitive military and security installations to Israel. The source did not provide their names, the location of the executions, details of the court proceedings, or when the sentences were handed down.

Amnesty International says at least 26 people linked to protests in January this year have been executed so far. Human rights organizations allege that Iranian authorities have used broad and vague national security accusations in such cases, including espionage and cooperation with a hostile state. The source attributes the execution report to Reuters, which cited Fars News Agency, while Amnesty International and rights groups provided broader context on the use of capital punishment.
