Iran’s Execution Rate Soars Amid Political Tensions<\/strong><\/p>\n Iran is witnessing a sharp rise in executions, with reports indicating that the country executed 657 individuals in just the first three months of 2025. This alarming figure may set a new record for the state, according to the Iran Human Rights Society.<\/p>\n Critics argue that the Iranian government is using the ongoing conflict with the U.S. and Israel as a cover to silence dissent, particularly after widespread protests that have shaken the regime. These protests led to a significant number of casualties, with many reportedly killed by security forces.<\/p>\n In March, the international community expressed outrage after the regime executed 19-year-old wrestler Saleh Mohammadi, prompting strong condemnation from figures like President Trump. <\/p>\n A spokesperson for the U.S. State Department described this execution as another indicator of the regime’s brutality, stating that it is clear why such a government should never have access to advanced technologies.<\/p>\n Mai Sato, the UN’s human rights expert on Iran, reported that since the beginning of the war, there have been at least six executions as of March 30, with two more added shortly after. She noted that the victims included protesters and those accused of espionage or rebellion against the government. Due to an internet blackout, the full extent of the situation remains unclear, but Sato emphasized that the death penalty appears to be used as a method to suppress political opposition during these turbulent times.<\/p>\n In a related statement, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) revealed the recent executions of members from the dissident group People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOE\/MEK). The NCRI has called for urgent action to protect other members who are at risk.<\/p>\n Maryam Rajavi, the president-elect of the NCRI, urged the international community to take “practical measures” against the Iranian government, including expelling its diplomats.<\/p>\n Before the wave of protests earlier this year, the UN reported that Iran had executed at least 1,500 people in 2025. These escalating executions highlight the regime’s use of capital punishment as a strategy for intimidation, especially against minority groups.<\/p>\n Amnesty International also raised concerns, revealing that several young protestors now face execution after being moved from their prison to an undisclosed location.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Iran’s Execution Rate Soars Amid Political Tensions Iran is witnessing a sharp rise in executions, with reports indicating that the country executed 657 individuals in just the first three months of 2025.
