The Israeli General Security Service (Shin Bet) and the Israeli police arrested two Israelis suspected of carrying out missions for Iranian agents.

One of the suspects transferred classified material to an operator that he had obtained during his military service in the Air Defense Force, according to the Jerusalem Post.

In a coordinated operation between the Shin Bet and the Israel Police's National Crime Unit (Lahav 433), two residents of the Krayot area, Yuri Eliasov and Georgi Andreyev, were arrested in January on suspicion of involvement in security crimes.

Investigations also revealed that Ilyasov had been in contact with an Iranian agent for several months, carrying out security missions under the agent’s direction in exchange for financial compensation.
