Iran's state TV doxxes journalists in Israel as post-war spy hunt intensifies
Since its June war with Israel, Iran has executed at least 9 people on charges of espionage.
Iranian state television has aired the personal details of several journalists linked to London-based news outlet Iran International and living in Israel, part of Tehran’s post-war campaign against perceived foreign-linked spies and dissidents.
What happened: On Tuesday, Iranian state television revealed what it said were the home addresses of several journalists and commentators associated with Iran International, which Tehran considers hostile to the Islamic Republic.
The report claimed Iranian intelligence operatives had “precisely located” the residences of multiple individuals in Israel either employed by or frequently appearing on the network.
Those named included Iran International reporter Babak Eshaghi, regular guest commentator Meir Javedanfar, Persian-language broadcaster for Israel Radio International Menashe Amir — the former editor of the Israeli Foreign Ministry’s Persian-language website — and Kamal Penhasi, the Israeli military’s Persian-language spokesperson.
