Iran Arrests Suspects, Israel Targets Checkpoints

0:00On March 15, Iran has arrested dozens of people accused of passing sensitive information to Israel as Israeli and U.S. fighter jets keep hitting, new targets across the country. In the northwest, authorities grabbed 20 suspects for sharing locations of military and security sites. Meanwhile, 10 more were picked up in the northeast for gathering details on key infrastructure spots that have dodged most strikes so far. All officials blamed these arrests on spies and mercenaries working to stir up trouble during the conflict. They tied back to earlier unrest, like the massive protests in January they got crushed hard, which Iran pinned on foreign meddling from Israel and the U.S. Israel is now zeroing in on security checkpoints thanks to tips from sources inside Iran marking a shift in their attack strategy. With tensions high and more arrests likely, the situation shows no signs of cooling down any time soon.
