Welcoming Canada’s solidarity with Iranians demanding justice and accountability. Iran must immediately halt executions, release all those arbitrarily detained, and end persecution of peaceful dissent. The int. community must turn its support into concrete action.
On #NoToExecutionsTuesday, Canada stands in solidarity with Iranians demanding justice, accountability and human dignity, and we are calling on Iran to immediately end the use of the death penalty and release all those arbitrarily detained.

💪 I join #NoToExecutionTuesdays in the solidarity hunger strike for the human rights defenders that are being jailed and threatened with death for their work. At least 46 political prisoners and protesters have been executed in Iran since March 2026. More than 100 others remain on death row. The executions should end and those detained released.
💪 Me sumo a la iniciativa #NoToExecutionTuesdays (No a las ejecuciones los martes) en una huelga de hambre solidaria por las personas defensora de los derechos humanos que están siendo encarceladas y amenazadas de muerte por su labor. Desde marzo de 2026, al menos 46 presos políticos y manifestantes han sido ejecutados en Irán. Más de 100 personas más permanecen esperando la pena de muerte. Las ejecuciones deben cesar y las personas detenidas deben ser puestas en libertad.

On Wednesday 28 October from 3pm (New York time), I will present my report on the human rights situation in the Islamic Republic of Iran to the UN General Assembly, sharing the floor with the Independent International Fact-Finding Mission on Iran.
My report examines the harm suffered by those killed and executed; those detained and disappeared; human rights defenders, documenters and mobilisers; and the harm to people’s livelihoods and the environment. In each of these areas, the impact of the hostilities with the United States and Israel has compounded the repression by the Iranian authorities. In each area, harms from outside and inside the country converge. War did not reduce repression but intensified it, and the heaviest burden fell on those already marginalised. My recommendations are therefore addressed to all parties: Iran, the United States and Israel, and all States.

Those subjected to enforced disappearance in Iran face a heightened risk of secret execution. Urgent international action is needed to protect them. #StopExecutionsInIran
shedding light on this is essential:

In week 144, Iran's political prisoners in 66 prisons are on hunger strike with #NoToExecutionTuesdays.
They warn that the death sentence upheld for Manouchehr Fallah; death sentences issued for Arab protester Ilia Ben Rashid, political prisoner Reza Zanganeh, and Hassan Golshan-Nejad on security charges ... is an alarm that cannot be ignored.

سه گزارش سازمان ملل متحد درباره وضعیت حقوق بشر در جمهوری اسلامی ایران در طی هفتههای اخیر منتشر شدهاند.
یافتههای گزارش کمیته مستقل بینالمللی حقیقتیاب نشان میدهد که سرکوب اعتراضات دی ۱۴۰۴ از سوی مقامهای جمهوری اسلامی، مصداق جنایت علیه بشریت از جمله قتل، حبس، شکنجه و سایر اعمال غیرانسانی است. این گزارش همچنین اعلام میکند که دلایل معقولی برای این باور وجود دارد که ایالات متحده آمریکا، با حمله بدون تمایز (میان نظامیان و غیرنظامیان) به دبستان در میناب و استفاده از مهمات خوشهای در محدوده یک مرکز ورزشی و خانههای مسکونی در لامرد مرتکب جنایت جنگی شده است.
ohchr.org/sites/default/file…
گزارش دبیرکل سازمان ملل بازه زمانی مرداد ۱۴۰۴ - اردیبهشت ۱۴۰۵ را پوشش میدهد. این گزارش نشان میدهد که مقامهای جمهوری اسلامی، چطور با توسل به امنیت ملی و علیرغم وجود ملاحظات جدی در مورد دادرسی عادلانه، اعدامها را گسترش دادند، بازداشتهای گسترده انجام دادند و اینترنت را قطع کردند. تحریمها، مخاصمات و قطع اینترنت تنگنای اجتماعی اقتصادی موجود از پیش را عمیقتر کرد و حقوق اجتماعی اقتصادی را تحتتأثیر قرار داد. توصیههای این گزارش شامل تغییرات ساختاری است: اصلاحات در سطوح قانونگذاری و قانون اساسی و تعلیق مجازات اعدام. این گزارش از دولتهای عضو درخواست میکند که به مخاصمات پایان دهند، و حقوق بشر را در مراودات دیپلماتیک و اقتصادی با ایران بگنجانند.
ohchr.org/en/documents/count…
گزارش من حول آسیبها تنظیم شده است: کشتهشدهها و اعدامشدهها، بازداشتشدهها و ناپدیدشدگان، مدافعان، مستندکنندگان و سازماندهندگان، معیشت مردم، و محیط زیست. در هرکدام از این موارد، منبع آسیب از خارج و داخل به هم میرسند. هشدارهای مربوط به حملات قریبالوقوع در شبکههای اجتماعی منتشر میشدند؛ شبکههایی که بهدلیل قطعی اینترنت اعمالشده از سوی مقامها جمهوری اسلامی، دیگر در دسترس نبودند. همچنین گزارشهایی وجود دارد مبنی بر اینکه هنگام حملات، زندانیان در سلولهای خود محبوس نگه داشته شدند. جنگ نهتنها از شدت سرکوب نکاست، بلکه آن را تشدید کرد: معترضان بهعنوان عوامل کشورهای متخاصم معرفی شدند و اعدامها در سراسر این دوره ادامه یافت. سنگینترین بار این وضعیت بر دوش کسانی افتاد که پیش از این نیز در حاشیه جامعه قرار داشتند. از همین رو، توصیههای من همه طرفها را مخاطب قرار میدهد: ایران، ایالات متحده و اسرائیل، و همچنین تمامی دولتها.
ohchr.org/en/documents/count…
چیزی که در بین این گزارشها مشترک است، مصونیت از مجازات است. در جریان هیچگونه تحقیق و تفحصی از سوی مقامهای ایرانی درباره کشتارهایی که نیروهای آنان مرتکب شدهاند، نیستم؛ ایالات متحده و اسرائیل نیز هیچ یافتهای درباره حملات خود منتشر نکردهاند. وقتی مسئولان حاضر نیستند درباره اقدامات خود تحقیق کنند، مستندسازی مستقل تنها چیزی است که میان قربانیان و محو شدن حقیقت و خاطره آنان از تاریخ قرار میگیرد. این گزارشها که بر پایه تلاشهای بازماندگان، خانوادهها و جامعه مدنی تهیه شدهاند، همان سابقه مستند و ماندگاری هستند که پاسخگویی در آینده به آن وابسته خواهد بود.
تا آن زمان، این گزارشها همگی بر ضرورت اقداماتی که در حال حاضر باید انجام شوند تأکید دارند: پایان دادن به مخاصمات از طریق دیپلماسی، با قرار دادن حقوق بشر در کانون هرگونه توافق؛ توقف اعدامها؛ آزادی افرادی که بهدلیل اعمال حقوق خود بازداشت شدهاند؛ تحقیق مستقل درباره تکتک مرگها؛ و فراهم کردن دسترسی سازوکارهای سازمان ملل متحد.

Three UN reports on the human rights situation in the Islamic Republic of Iran have been published in recent weeks.
The the Independent International Fact-Finding Mission’s report concludes that the crackdown by Iranian authorities on the Dec 2025- Jan2026 protests amount to crimes against humanity of murder, imprisonment, torture and other inhumane acts. It also finds reasonable grounds to believe that the US committed the war crime of launching an indiscriminate attack, both in striking a primary school in Minab and in using a wide-dispersal munition over a sports centre and homes in Lamerd. ohchr.org/sites/default/file…
The Secretary-General’s report covers August 2025 to May 2026. It shows how the authorities invoked national security to expand executions amid serious fair-trial concerns, carry out mass arrests and impose internet shutdowns. Sanctions, the hostilities and the shutdown compounded pre-existing socioeconomic hardship and further undermined the enjoyment of socioeconomic rights. Its recommendations include structural change: reform at the legislative and constitutional level and a moratorium on the death penalty. It urged Member States to end the hostilities, to integrate human rights into their diplomatic and economic engagement with Iran. ohchr.org/en/documents/count…
My report is organised around impacts: the killed and executed; the detained and missing; those who defend, document and mobilise; livelihoods; and the environment. In each, the external and internal sources of harm converge. Warnings of incoming strikes were posted to social media that the authorities’ own shutdown had made unreachable, and prisoners were reportedly locked in as the strikes fell. The war did not loosen the repression; it tightened it: protesters were recast as agents of the attacking States, and executions continued throughout. The burden fell hardest on those already at the margins. My recommendations are accordingly addressed to all parties: Iran, the US and Israel, and all States. ohchr.org/en/documents/count…
The common thread is impunity. I know of no investigation by the Iranian authorities into the killings by their forces, and the US and Israel have published no findings on their strikes. When those responsible will not investigate themselves, independent documentation is what stands between the victims and erasure. These reports, built on the work of survivors, families and civil society, are that record, and accountability will one day depend on it.
Until then, the reports converge on what must happen now: end the hostilities through diplomacy, with human rights at the heart of any agreement; halt executions; release those detained for exercising their rights; investigate every death independently; and grant UN mechanisms access.
Iran appointed Dadkhoda Salari as Kerman’s judiciary chief on Oct. 20, despite a record linked to executions, including Arman Bahr Asemani, executed at 16 for an alleged offense committed as a child. His appointment raises urgent concerns about impunity.

Iranian authorities are punishing the family of executed PMOI member Babak Alipour. His father, Ali, was arrested on Oct. 20; his brother Rouzbeh has been detained for 9 months. The family was denied Babak’s body and still does not know where he is buried.
Iran has executed two more political prisoners linked to the PMOI (MEK), Babak Alipour (34) and Pouya Ghobadi (33), one day after the executions of Mohammad Taghavi and Ali Akbar Daneshvarkar.
Sentenced in grossly unfair trials by Branch 26 under judge Iman Afshari, their deaths reflect Iran’s escalating use of executions to crush dissent.
Vahid Baniamerian and Abolhassan Montazer are now at imminent risk. Urgent international action is needed.
#StopExecutionsInIran
URGENT: Iran’s Supreme Court has upheld political prisoner Manouchehr Fallah’s death sentence for PMOI membership. His case is with the verdict implementation office in Rasht, putting him at imminent risk of execution.
@UN must act now.

A father's final words to his 16-year-old daughter: "Assal, on the eve of your birthday, the judge sentenced me to death, perhaps hoping to break me. But silence in the face of oppression is an unforgivable sin..." - Manouchehr Fallah awaits execution for seeking justice. #StopExecutionsInIran

Iran has executed at least 34 people linked to the January 2026 protests. At least 20 more face imminent execution after death sentences were upheld, including two defendants who were under 18 at the time of the alleged offenses. #StopExecutionsInIran
