Two Chareidie brothers Indicted for espionage for Iran


 The indictment was unveiled against the two ultra-Orthodox brothers from Beit Shemesh and Beitar Illit for espionage offenses against Iran. (Off the Record)

The court allowed the publication of the indictment against two ultra-Orthodox brothers from Beit Shemesh and Beitar Illit, who are accused of communicating with Iranian intelligence officials and passing security information to the enemy.

According to the indictment, the two brothers fabricated information and used artificial intelligence software to produce documents and information that they passed on to an Iranian agent named "David" – in return they received more than 100,000 shekels.

One of the brothers, the main defendant in the case, used the false identity of a young man who stole his ID card and photo from the Telegram app, and posed with them as a soldier in Unit 8200.

The brothers' lawyer claims that they are two Zionist and patriotic brothers who wanted to 'sting' the Iranians. "The state should award them the Israel Prize for their contribution to the security of the state."

What's the worse insult - calling them spies or Zionists?
