UN: Large Rise in Number of People Executed in Iran
30th August 2025
Iranian authorities have executed at least 841 people so far this year, marking a major increase, the United Nations human rights office said on Friday.
One hundred people were executed in July, more than double the number of people executed in July of last year, according to the Office for the High Commissioner of Human Rights.
They included women, Afghan nationals, and ethnic minorities such as Baloch, Kurdish, and Arab citizens.
Opposition to executions, like opposition to slavery, is a Christian thing; Muslims have no problem with either of those.
