In Iran, an average of one protester per week has been sent to the gallows since March. Scores of protesters remain at imminent risk of execution.
At the @UN_HRC this week, Human Rights Watch spoke about the ongoing atrocities Iranians are facing, including possible war crimes by Israel and the US. Learn more ⤵️
🔴In a joint report published today, the Abdorrahman Boroumand Center and Human Rights Watch condemned the ongoing unlawful execution campaign against protesters and political dissidents in Iran and called for global action to end the Islamic Republic’s relentless assault on the right to life.
🔸At least 29 individuals have been executed in connection with the December 2025 - January 2026 protests within the past five months, based on ABC and HRW’s human rights monitoring. Scores more remain at imminent risk. The organizations documented systemic due process violations, including denial of access to independent legal counsel, torture and ill-treatment to extract forced “confessions,” and politically-motivated convictions by Iran’s judiciary..
🔸These abuses are part of a broader weaponization of Iran’s legal framework to punish protesters and suppress dissent. Systematically vilifying protesters as “rioters” and “terrorists,” the Islamic Republic has continued to expand the scope of offenses punishable by death, providing authorities with broader legal tools to prosecute and execute those who challenge the state.

کمپین اعدام غیرقانونی و ادامهدار علیه معترضان
«دیدهبان حقوق بشر» و «بنیاد عبدالرحمن برومند برای حقوق بشر در ایران» امروز گفتند مقامات ایران به شکل هفتگی و به طرزی غیرقانونی معترضان و مخالفان سیاسی را اعدام میکنند، اقدامی که حملهای بیوقفه به حق حیات است.
این شامل حداقل ۲۹ فرد دستگیر شده در ارتباط با اعتراضات دی ماه ۱۴۰۴ و حداقل سه نفر دستگیر شده در ارتباط با اعتراضات زن، زندگی، آزادی در سال ۱۴۰۱ میشد. چندین نفر نوجوانان ۱۸ و ۱۹ ساله و بسیاری بیست و چند ساله بودند.
اعدام در ملاعام دو مرد جوان، امیرحسین صفری و ابوالفضل سپاهی، در رابطه با اعتراضات اخیر نشانگر توسل فزاینده مقامات به این مجازات در راستای ایجاد رع�� وحشت است. بسیاری دیگر، از جمله معترضان، در خطر قریبالوقوع اعدامهای غیرقانونی، خودسرانه، شتابزده و مخفیانه قرار دارند.
On July 28, Iran’s authorities publicly hanged two young men in connection with recent protests following a grossly unfair and summary trial.
Over the past four months alone, Iranian authorities have arbitrarily executed at least 52 people on vague national security charges, including 26 protesters.

🚨 Concerns are growing about a wave of death sentences and arbitrary and secret executions against protest detainees, including children, in the coming weeks.
Those interviewed said that prosecutors and prison officials have systematically denied detainees access to their families and lawyers and refuse to provide information about detainees’ fate and whereabouts.
Human Rights Watch spoke with people both inside and outside Iran, including detained protesters; relatives of people killed, detained, and/or forcibly disappeared; people participating in protests; lawyers; human rights defenders; medical professionals; and journalists.
📢 Tens of thousands of people are reported to have been arrested in Iran with detainees facing torture, coerced “confessions,” and secret, summary, and arbitrary executions.
As a whole nation remains in shock, horror, & grief, & families are searching for their loved ones in the aftermath of security forces’ massacres on January 8 & 9, Iranian authorities continue to terrorize the population.

An internet shutdown has plunged Iran into a communications blackout as authorities continue to unleash their deadly repression against protesters.
UN member states should press Iran to stop the bloodshed and pursue accountability.
این سرکوب، بر اساس اطلاعات موثقی که توسط عفو بینالملل و دیدهبان حقوق بشر جمعآوری شده است، منجر به کشته شدن حداقل ۲۸ معترض و ناظر، از جمله کودکان، در ۱۳ شهر از ۸ استان از ۱۰ تا ۱۳ دی ۱۴۰۴
شده است.

دیدهبان حقوق بشر و عفو بینالملل امروز گفتند مقامات ایران سرکوبی مرگبار علیه معترضان در سراسر کشور از هفتم دی ۱۴۰۴ پیاده کردهاند، که با استفا��ه غیرقانونی نیروهای امنیتی از نیروی قهریه و سلاح گرم و دستگیریهای دستهجمعی خودسرانه همراه بوده است.
یافتههای این سازمانها نشان میدهد نیروهای امنیتی از جمله سپاه پاسداران انقلاب اسلامی و نیروی انتظامی ایران (فراجا)، چگونه از تفنگ، شاتگانهای مجهز به ساچمه فلزی، ماشین آبپاش، گاز اشکآور، و ضرب و شتم برای متفرق کردن، تهدید، و مجازات معترضان عمدتاً مسالمتآمیز استفاده کردهاند.
