Israel Deploys Rabbis to Caution Community Against Iranian Espionage

Israeli officials say Iranian agents are targeting citizens through online recruitment campaigns. To counter this, the government has launched a series of countermeasures. Among the measures is the enlistment of rabbis to address religious communities. The rabbis are tasked with warning followers not to cooperate with Iranian spies. Authorities describe the effort as part of a broader security strategy. The campaign targets the digital sphere where recruitment attempts occur. Officials hope the religious outreach will deter potential collaborators. The initiative reflects Israel’s heightened vigilance against foreign espionage.
