Government officials were among those netted in an Iranian counterespionage operation that Tehran's intelligence ministry touted this weekend, a news website reported Sunday. 

The semi-official Fars news agency (link in Persian) reported "a number of Iranian government managers" were among the 30 arrested on suspicion of having ties with the CIA. 

Fars quoted "an informed source" as saying a manager of one of Iran's ministries and a number of other officials employed by government bodies were arrested.
