The Iranian regime executed Reza Rasaei, a 34-year-old Kurdish political prisoner detained during the 2022 Woman, Life, Freedom movement, at Dizel Abad Prison. His death sentence, condemned by human rights groups for serious due process violations and torture-extracted confessions, is part of a larger crackdown that has seen dozens of protesters either executed or sentenced to long prison terms. Meanwhile, Iranian intelligence forces arrested three members of exiled Kurdish political activist Hassan Vazhi’s family in Piranshahr and violently detained relatives of the slain protester Mohammad Hassanzadeh in Bokan. Additionally, three Kurdish religious activists in Bokan face charges of “rebellion.” The Hengaw Organization for Human Rights reports that Iranian authorities have arrested 92 individuals nationwide in July, including 49 Kurds. Concurrently, the crackdown on Kurdish border porters continued, with border guards killing 25-year-old Asad Afranjeh near Marvian, bringing the number of kolbar deaths since July to six. In Mehabad, police shot dead the father of a young Kurdish man following an altercation between his son and Basij forces.
