Iran has executed at least two individuals linked to protests and the ongoing war, with a Tehran court sentencing four others to death for the killing of a Basij-affiliated student during the 2022 protests. Abbas Akbari Feyzabadi was hanged for charges including 'enmity against God' and attacks on security forces, while Mojtaba Kian was executed for espionage. The trials have been criticized for lack of legal representation and coercion in obtaining confessions. UN officials and human rights organizations have expressed alarm over the wave of executions and unfair trials.
