The official death count declared by the regime stands at 23,157, around a fifth of the actual figure. \u201cThirteen provinces are red zones and 15 are in alarming Covid-19 conditions,\u201d said the spokesperson of the regime\u2019s Health Ministry said on Sunday, according to the official IRNA news agency. \u201cCurrently, 88 cities are registered as red zones and 90 cities are yellow or white zones indicating a medium-level coronavirus threat. No city in the country is in green status, meaning none are coronavirus-free. The highest number of new weekly Covid-19 cases were in the provinces of Bushehr, Qom and Lorestan. The highest number of weekly deaths were reported in the provinces of North Khorasan, Semnan and Isfahan,\u201d she added. Iran&#039;s Regime Executed Wrestling Champion Despite International Outcries Navid Afkari was executed on Saturday morning in Shiraz. Despite widespread international outcries in Iran and around the world to stop his execution, the Iranian regime hanged the young Iran protester in a bid to prevent further protests against the regime. He was arrested on September 17, 2018 and accused of killing a Basij agent Hasan Turkman during the August 2018 protests in Shiraz. Navid filed a complaint with the judiciary on September 13, detailing how he was forced to give false confessions while being subjected to \u201cthe most severe physical and psychological torture\u201d during nearly 50 days in police detention. MEK Resistance Units Activities Continue Across Iran Resistance Units and supporters of the Mujahedin-Khalq marked the beginning of the 56th anniversary of the Organization\u2019s founding in Tehran and many other cities. They posted banners of the Resistance leadership, distributed leaflets, and wrote slogans, paying tribute to the Organization and the leaders of the Resistance, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, and Mr. Massoud Rajavi, the leader of the Iranian Resistance. These activities, which took place despite the clerical regime\u2019s efforts to instill an atmosphere of terror and intimidation, were carried out in Tehran, as well as other cities across Iran. The slogans displayed in public during last week\u2019s campaigns included: \u201cOn behalf of the youth of Tehran: Congratulations on the anniversary of the foundation of the MEK,\u201d \u201cGreetings for 56 years of MEK\u2019s resistance and perseverance,\u201d \u201cgreetings to the great founders of the Mujahedin-e Khalq for 56 years of sacrifice.
