The 21-year-olds, both from northern Israel, were arrested on suspicion of two security offences: transferring classified information and aiding the enemy during wartime, according to the Times of Israel.
They allegedly spray-painted graffiti and hung banners in Tel Aviv, displaying the slogan “Children of Ruhollah,” referring Iran’s first supreme leader, Ruhollah Khomeini, following the Islamic Revolution.
Prosecutors will file an indictment case against the pair in the following days.
