Iran detains 22 people suspected of links to Israeli intelligence

TehrancTypeface:> Iran has detained 22 people on suspicion of links to Israeli intelligence services. The suspects were held in the province of Qom, the pro-government ISNA news agency reported, citing local intelligence police. The detainees are suspected of having been in contact with the espionage services of the 'Zionist regime,' according to the news agency. They are also accused of 'unsettling public opinion' and 'supporting the criminal regime' of Israel. Details of the specific charges or the identities of those arrested have not been released. Iranian authorities have initiated a wave of arrests in the midst of the war with Israel, with media reporting dozens of people having been taken into custody across the country in recent days. Strikes between Israel and Iran are continuing for a second week, with a round of diplomatic talks between European foreign ministers and their Iranian counterpart on Friday having failed to produce results towards an end to the attacks. Israel says it launched its attack on June 13 because Iran was on the cusp of producing a nuclear weapon - something Tehran has consistently denied, saying its nuclear programme is for civilian use only.
