On the third anniversary of the major Iran protests in January 2018, Amnesty International released a statement, underlining how the international community\u2019s inaction has granted impunity to the regime\u2019s authorities to kill, detain and continue harassing protesters.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn the third anniversary of the nationwide protests of December 2017 and January 2018, Amnesty International renews its calls for justice for the dozens of protesters, including children, who were killed by Iran\u2019s security forces across the country, and their bereaved families. The organization also stands in solidarity with those seeking truth and accountability for the thousands of protesters who were arbitrarily detained, those who suffered torture or other ill-treatment in detention, those who died in custody in suspicious circumstances and those who were subsequently sentenced to death or executed following grossly unfair trials,\u201d read the statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As the Iranian Resistance revealed during the first days of the uprising in 2018<\/a>, the regime\u2019s security forces, by the direct order of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, opened fire on protesters killing dozens. The regime continued killing the protesters under torture, or later executing them. Mostafa Salehi, who was arrested during the 2018 protests in Isfahan province, was executed<\/a> in August 2020.<\/p>\n
