The ministry added that one operative was killed, weapons, drones, and Starlink devices were also confiscated.
Another operative smuggling military intel also arrested at a northern border, the ministry continued.
In a detailed statement released on Sunday, the group was planning "terrorist operations against sensitive centers" and a specific assassination plot in Tehran.
During the confrontation with security forces, one operative was killed in a direct firefight before the remaining members were apprehended, the ministry reiterated.
Simultaneous intelligence operations in Kerman and Alborz provinces led to the discovery of a second operational cell.
Security forces monitored the group’s movements, arresting the members before they could execute any hostile actions, the statement added.
