The signatories denounce the systematic use of the death penalty under President Masoud Pezeshkian\u2019s administration and call for an immediate halt to all executions, particularly those targeting political prisoners. They also demand accountability for past atrocities, including the 1988 massacre of thousands of political prisoners\u2014a crime that remains unpunished to this day. This statement forms part of an ongoing global campaign to end executions in Iran and to challenge the entrenched culture of impunity that enables such crimes. We invite all individuals, organizations, and governments to join this urgent call: No to executions. No to impunity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/iran-hrm.com\/2025\/10\/30\/global-2025-call-stop-executions-in-iran\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">IAEA Detects New Nuclear Activity in Iran Amid Reports of Missile Program Reconstruction<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-333285 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Iran-Fordow-nuclear-site-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Iran-Fordow-nuclear-site-2.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Iran-Fordow-nuclear-site-2-150x85.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rafael Grossi, Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), announced that the agency has recently identified new activities at Iran\u2019s nuclear sites.

Grossi told the media on Wednesday, October 29, that although the Iranian regime is not currently increasing uranium enrichment, satellite images show suspicious movements around uranium storage sites.

Over the past year, regime officials, including the minister of communications and the government spokesperson, have repeatedly evaded questions about the unblocking of platforms. While publicly claiming that the issue is under serious review, these officials have offered no concrete timeline or measures, suggesting that efforts to implement a second phase of unblocking have effectively failed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/irannewsupdate.com\/news\/society\/iran-regime-maintains-ban-on-major-social-media-platforms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/iran-news-in-brief-news\/iran-news-in-brief-october-30-2025\/\">Also, read Iran News in Brief \u2013 October 30, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THIS PAGE WILL BE UPDATED WITH THE LATEST NEWS UPDATE: 08:00 AM CET Iran&rsquo;s 10 Quadrillion-Rial Scandal: Ayandeh Bank Exposes Khamenei&rsquo;s Lie Of &lsquo;No Systemic Corruption&rsquo; In May 2023, the [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":338735,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[234],"tags":[277],"class_list":{"0":"post-338728","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-iran-news-in-brief-news","8":"tag-iran-news"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
