World
Iran has executed three men, Hassan Dioband, Hamid Kazemi, and Reza Zanganeh, after accusing them of collaborating with the US and Israel during January's anti-government protests.
Authorities said the trio used weapons and explosives in the city of Karaj, leading to power outages in some areas and property damage.
Their arrests were part of a wider push by Iran to clamp down on suspected foreign influence after the unrest.

The Iranian courts handed out death sentences to these men, a move later backed by the Supreme Court.
10 others linked to them got prison terms between five and 10 years.
The judiciary also ordered their assets seized, making it clear that Iran is taking a hard line against protest-related offenses.
