Iran’s intelligence services have arrested 26 people, accusing them of collaborating with Israel, state media Fars news agency reported, days after a ceasefire between the two countries was announced, AFP reports.

“These individuals were identified as operatives and deceived participants in the recent imposed war by the Zionist regime have been arrested by the Intelligence Organization of the Hazrat Vali Asr Corps,” Iranian state media Fars news agency said on Wednesday.

“Most of them have confessed to their actions, including anti-security activities, spreading public anxiety, and acts of sabotage,” it added, citing a statement by the organisation.
