(10)Amnesty warns Iran escalating executions to crush dissent
Iranian authoritiesare intensifying their use of executions and death sentences to punish protesters and suppress dissent, Amnesty International said following the public hanging of two protesters on Tuesday.
The rights group saidat least 26 people convicted of offenses linked to the January 2026 protests have been executedsince the beginning of the year following what it described as torture-tainted and grossly unfair trials.
At least 60 others, including three people arrested for alleged offenses committed as children, remain at risk of execution, Amnesty said. Many more are facing prosecution on charges that can carry the death penalty.
“The Iranian authorities are unleashing a horrifying wave of executions and death sentences to punish and suppress dissent and project an image of strength and absolute control,” said Heba Morayef, Amnesty’s regional director for the Middle East and North Africa.
Amnesty said defendants had been convicted using broadly worded charges such as “enmity against God,” “corruption on earth,” espionage and collaboration with hostile states. It documented cases involving forced confessions, enforced disappearance, torture, denial of access to lawyers and closed Revolutionary Court proceedings.
The organization called on UN member states to press Tehran to halt further executions, support an independent international justice mechanism for Iran and urge the UN Security Council to refer the country’s human rights situation to the International Criminal Court.
