Iran executes two women over protests
The Iranian authorities have issued death sentences against two women and imprisoned others in connection with their participation in anti-government protests in mid-January in Isfahan, where demonstrations were intensifying against the regime. The cases have been referred to the Supreme Court, with charges related to setting fire to a shop and participating in acts of violence that resulted in the death of a security officer and civilians. While international efforts to pressure Iran to stop the execution of women have been praised, so far no death sentence has been carried out against any woman linked to the protests, despite Iran executing 29 men related to the events.
