Israel arrests three for allegedly aiding Iran in plotting attacks
- Israeli police and Shin Bet arrested three suspects on Monday for spying on behalf of Iranian intelligence in two separate cases.

- Among those detained was 33-year-old Mark Morgein, accused of transferring a grenade between hidden sites and filming a missile interception for Iranian handlers in June.
- The Petah Tikva Magistrate's Court extended the suspects' remand for four days until Thursday after prosecutors submitted a declaration on Monday ahead of planned indictments.
