The Iranian parliament has enacted a new bill imposing severe penalties on those spying for Israel and the United States. This legislation follows a period of conflict between Iran and Israel, with the US providing support. The bill introduces stringent punishments for espionage, with the potential for the death penalty. The Iranian government asserts that this law is vital for enhancing national security. Following the conflict, Iranian security agencies detained numerous individuals suspected of espionage on behalf of the U.S. and Israel. The law also restricts internet use and social media activities, which may be deemed threats to national security.
