A citizen of Tajikistan has been detained in Israel on suspicion of espionage for Iran

The Israeli police have detained a citizen of Tajikistan and Russia on suspicion of espionage for Iran.

Israeli security services reported on July 2 that Behruz Sobirjon was detained at the end of June this year on suspicion of espionage.

According to Israeli intelligence, Behruz Sobirjon has been in contact with Iranian intelligence since January of this year, including sending them photos and videos of locations hit by Iranian missiles, providing information about important sites in Israel, and attempting to recruit others.

Israeli intelligence claims that during the military conflict between Israel and Iran, which began on February 28, Behruz Sobirjon started cooperating with Iranian intelligence and actively transmitted information to Iran.

It is reported that Sobirjon was initially offered a job, but soon realized that it was an Iranian agent who made the offer, yet he continued to maintain contact with him.

Currently, neither Behruz Sobirjon nor his relatives have publicly commented on these accusations. The authorities of Tajikistan have also not provided any information.
