Israeli security forces on Thursday submitted an indictment against 34-year-old Israeli citizen Amir Hisham Muhammad Titi, who is accused of carrying out operations on behalf of Iran. He was arrested several weeks before the indictment, police noted.
Titi was an ambulance driver and allegedly provided his Iranian handlers with various types of intelligence, including the emergency protocols of various Israeli hospitals. He was also alleged to have distributed media documentation showing a high-profile Israeli figure during a visit to one of the hospitals in northern Israel.
In addition to his hospital-related spy work, Titi is suspected of taking on missions to collect media documentation of various locations in Israel, including Hostages Square in Tel Aviv.
He also reportedly took photographs of the Horev Mall in Haifa and a town in the Sharon region where a senior member of the Israeli security establishment lives.

The indictment was filed on Thursday morning in the Haifa District Court.
