Iran’s Tasnim news agency is speculating that Iranian intelligence minister Mahmoud Alavi was in fact referring to former Israeli minister Gonen Segev in comments that may represent Tehran’s first confirmation it recruited him as a spy.

Tasnim is a private news outlet, but is closely linked to the powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps. The open speculation in Iran’s closely supervised media may represent a signal toward confirmation.
