The investigation revealed that, starting in early 2025, Maor was in contact with Iranian intelligence officials and, under their direction, carried out a variety of security missions.
Meanwhile, Maor carried out photography missions of military bases and public places in Israel under the guidance of his operators, and even during the war with the "Kalavi people" he initiated an appeal to the Iranians in order to carry out additional missions.
As part of the investigation, it emerged that Maor was in contact with elements linked to VIPemployment, who openly identify themselves as Iran's intelligence service and are working to attempt to recruit Israelis across the network.
For performing security tasks, Maor received funds in cryptocurrencies.
Maor tried to recruit others to carry out missions for Iranian intelligence.
As the investigation developed, another suspect, Tal Amram, 26, from Holon, was arrested on suspicion of having contact with a foreign agent and carrying out missions under his direction.
Today (Tuesday) a prosecutor's statement was filed against Maor and Tal, and an indictment is expected to be filed by the prosecutor's office in the coming days.
