The grassroots \u201cNo to Executions Tuesdays\u201d campaign continues to gain momentum across Iran, entering its 62nd week with coordinated hunger strikes involving political prisoners in 38 separate detention centers. Despite the Nowruz holidays and the holy month of Ramadan, the clerical regime has intensified its brutal crackdown, confirming death sentences for numerous prisoners, including political detainee Hamid Hosseinnejad Heydaranlou.<\/p>\n

The \u201cNo to Executions Tuesdays\u201d movement<\/a>, which condemns all executions as state-sponsored murder and calls for the immediate abolition of the death penalty, reported participation from political prisoners in major facilities such as Evin, Ghezel Hesar, Greater Tehran Prison, Karaj Central Prison, and Shiraz\u2019s Adelabad Prison, among others. The campaign\u2019s organizers have called on the Iranian public to demonstrate in front of prisons and other public locations to demand an end to the regime\u2019s brutal policies.<\/p>\n

Despite heavy censorship and repression, social media posts indicate rising solidarity with the campaign, with families of death row prisoners gathering outside notorious prisons like Evin and Rasht. Activists argue that the regime\u2019s crackdown aims to crush dissent and intimidate the public amid mounting economic hardship and political instability.<\/p>\n

The \u201cNo to Executions Tuesdays\u201d campaign asserts<\/a> that the growing resistance from within Iran\u2019s prisons is a testament to the regime\u2019s inability to stifle opposition. As the movement continues to expand, many observers believe the clerical dictatorship\u2019s reliance on repression only deepens the nation\u2019s crisis.<\/p>\n
