Iran\u2019s intelligence ministry has arrested 97 people accused of being “soldiers of Israel<\/a>,” according to state media reports Thursday.<\/p>\n

The arrests are part of the country\u2019s latest security sweep, which<\/a> has seen hundreds detained over alleged links to Israel and the United States since the start of the war, Reuters<\/a> said.<\/p>\n

Earlier Thursday, state media also cited the police commander of Alborz province<\/a> as saying 41 people had been arrested for sending videos to opposition media channels based abroad.<\/p>\n

On March 10, Iran\u2019s intelligence ministry also reported it had arrested a foreign national, along with 30 other people it described as spies, internal mercenaries and operational agents of Israel and the U.S., according to Reuters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The latest wave of arrests came in the wake of the assassination of Iran\u2019s intelligence minister<\/a>, Esmaeil Khatib, in a targeted Israeli strike in Tehran.<\/p>\n

Khatib\u2019s death was confirmed March 18 by Israeli Defense Minister, Israel Katz and ten days after the start of Operation Epic Fury<\/a> and Operation Roaring Lion, both targeting the Iranian regime.<\/p>\n

Under Khatib, the intelligence ministry\u2019s role broadened significantly, and it now operates extensive informant networks across universities, media organizations, minority communities and activist circles across the country.<\/p>\n

Its agents identify protest organizers, monitor communications and conduct interrogations, according to The Jerusalem Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On March 12, the U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA) also said Iranian authorities had arrested nearly 200 people on charges related to the U.S.-Israeli war against the Islamic Republic.<\/p>\n

The charges include alleged activity on social media, sending content to foreign media outlets, espionage and disturbing public order, HRANA<\/a> said before adding that its count was based on official reports.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
