An Iranian political prisoner blasted the government for carrying on with executions while shutting down schools, offices and businesses amid ongoing energy deficit. “One thing has not been paused for those in power, and that is executions,” Haeri said from prison Thursday.
He also criticized Iran’s support for Syria’s ousted president Bashar al-Assad, highlighting reports of a drug production operation tied to Assad’s brother, Maher, while Iran continues to execute young individuals for possessing small amounts of drugs.
“These executions, beyond being a blatant violation of human rights, bring no benefit to the regime itself other than further angering the people and accelerating the steep path toward collapse,” he added.
