Iran has warned that it is preparing for a fresh wave of US attacks as Tehran announced the execution of a man convicted of passing intelligence on Iranian missile sites to Mossad.
Iran’s central military command said on Sunday that it had received information that the United States, backed by several regional countries, was preparing to resume military action against the Islamic Republic.
It warned that any new attack would trigger sustained strikes against American bases and interests across the Middle East, while countries assisting Washington would be treated as parties to the conflict.
Meanwhile, Iran’s judiciary announced that a man had been hanged after being convicted of spying for Israel during the 12-day Israel-Iran war in June 2025.
According to the judiciary-run Mizan news agency, Hossein Pedaran supplied Mossad with sensitive information about military and missile facilities in the central province of Isfahan.
Iranian authorities claimed he had carried out the espionage for financial gain. His death sentence was upheld by the country’s supreme court before he was executed.
Isfahan province contains some of Iran’s most important nuclear and military facilities and has repeatedly been targeted during conflicts with Israel and the United States.
Iran has sharply intensified executions of people accused of spying for Israel amid its confrontation with Jerusalem.
