Iran’s Intelligence Ministry has accused two French diplomats of involvement in what it described as an “infiltration and interference” operation inside the country.
In a statement carried by state-run IRNA, the ministry alleged that the diplomats were found at a secret meeting place while Iranian authorities were investigating two other suspects.
The ministry claimed documents seized during the investigation pointed to efforts to identify individuals, establish covert contacts and build networks inside and outside Iran.
It also alleged that contracts linked to the purported operation bore the signature of France’s former ambassador to Iran.
The Iranian statement did not provide evidence establishing that the diplomats were involved in a French government operation.
