Mohammad Javad Vafaei Sani, a boxing champion and supporter of the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK) who has spent nearly seven years behind bars and faces execution, has been named the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.magnitskyawards.com\/bios\/mohammad-javad-vafaei-sani\/\">recipient of the 2026 Magnitsky Award for Outstanding Human Rights Activist<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The prestigious international award recognizes his courage in standing against political repression and defending fundamental human rights despite years of imprisonment, torture, and repeated death sentences by the Iranian regime.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The official award announcement describes Vafaei Sani\u2019s case as a symbol of the persecution of peaceful dissent in Iran and highlights the international campaign for his release and the annulment of his death sentence.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The formal award ceremony is scheduled for November 12 in London, where British Member of Parliament Bob Blackman, chair of the British Committee for Iran Freedom, will present the award.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:

implementation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a

coordinated hunger strike to mark the 146th consecutive week of the \u201cNo to Executions Tuesdays\u201d campaign.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The widespread protest comes as political prisoners continue to push back against the regime\u2019s systematic use of the death penalty, demonstrating a highly organized resistance despite severe retaliation. Over the past weeks, participating inmates have faced escalating security pressures, direct threats, strict limitations on their communication with the outside world, and various punitive measures designed to exhaust them and silence their protests.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, despite the regime\u2019s relentless attempts to break their spirit, the campaign has transformed into a symbol of unwavering defiance over the course of nearly three years. By staging hunger strikes week after week, the prisoners boldly reaffirm their opposition to capital punishment and their defense of the fundamental right to life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a style=\"color: #4db2ec;
