Two of the young men in this photo have been executed today in Iran.
The other ten have been transferred to solitary confinement, they are next in line to be hanged.
These are the same prisoners president Trump publicly announced that, the Islamic Republic had promised not to execute.
That promise was a lie. You all watching war headlines but no one talks about the war being imposed on us Iranians by our own regime that hanging its own people in silence.
They are people who said: we want freedom.
If no one speaks, the regime will kill more protesters.
Please join me and help us to #StopExecutionsInIran.
In the middle of the war, the regime in Iran executed an innocent protester.
Aref Khoshkar today, joined #WomanLifeFreedom to protest the murder of Mahsa Amini and the hand of morality Police.
They tortured him for years. When that wasn't enough, they arrested his younger brother and threatened to rape him, to force Aref to confess.
His family had their last visit on July 12. They begged for one month to arrange a meeting with the victim's family to seek forgiveness, a legal right under Iranian law. The authorities themselves promised that meeting.
They executed him anyway. The meeting never happened.
This is a regime that uses rape threats against children to manufacture confessions, then kills the man who was broken by them.
The future of Iran will not be shaped by those men who stood in the front row of his funeral.
It will be shaped by the people who, despite everything, continue to resist.
The dictator is gone.
The struggle for a free Iran is not.

URGENT:
"I reached out to almost every newspaper inside Iran. No one will touch this story."
Zeinab Mousavi known as "Aban" is dying quietly in Vakilabad Prison, and Iran’s regime wants no one to know.
A barista arrested alongside her brother Hassan on February 24, 2025, Zeinab has been charged with moharebeh, "enmity against God", for protesting. The charge carries the death penalty.
Now, her health is collapsing. For several consecutive nights, she has been suffering seizures in her sleep. Her family and supporters are demanding her immediate emergency transfer for medical treatment outside the prison walls. That demand has been ignored.
The silence around her case is not accidental.
Sepideh Qolian, an Iranian activist who was herself just released from prison, tried to break it. She reached out to most major Iranian newspapers to speak about the deteriorating conditions of the December protesters from Mashhad. Not one was willing to publish it.
"I'm at my most helpless," Qolian wrote. "If I speak to foreign media, I'll be arrested again. The conditions of the December prisoners are very bad."
Iran has built a perfect trap: beat them inside, silence those who witness it, and punish anyone who speaks out.
Zeinab Mousavi may be executed for protesting. She may also die waiting for medical care she is being denied.
Her story is being buried in real time. We refuse to let that happen.

Look at the fear in her eyes. She feels everything.
Before they are violently killed, many pigs are left conscious after being stunned with electric probes.
There are beings in this world who cannot cry out or put their pain into words.
And somehow, even in their hardest moments, they never rush or pressure one another.
The look of quiet resignation in their eyes, and the pain reflected in their tired bodies, is truly heartbreaking.
I watched them for a long time... and tears came to my eyes.
These are the silent pains that can never be spoken.
We at the Narges Foundation are deeply alarmed by yesterday's arbitrary re-arrest of environmental defenders Sepideh Kashani and Houman Jokar, alongside Sepideh's sister, Sima Kashani, in Tehran, Iran.
Environmental advocacy is vital for our collective future, not a threat. We echo the international calls of human rights organizations and environmental institutions demanding their immediate and unconditional release.
Protecting the planet is a human right and must be encouraged, not stopped.

This pig is desperate for her freedom.
But she won't get it because she's trapped in the hell that is animal agriculture.
