The Iranian regime has launched a new wave of executions in several prisons across the country, including Gohardasht, Minab, Neishabur, Bandar Abbas, Mashhad, Birjand, Iranshahr, and Zahedan. The executions, which took place from April 29 to May 3, were intended to intimidate and prevent uprisings. Among the 20 victims were 14 Baloch compatriots, including two women. In response to these brutal actions, on May 14, defiant youths carried out 13 campaigns, targeting repression and looting centers and setting fire to symbols of the regime and images of Khamenei and Qassem Soleimani.
The targets included a judicial center in Jam Bushehr, the Discretionary Punishments Organization in Gachsaran, two City Halls buildings in District 10 in Tehran and District 11 in Isfahan, two IRGC Basij bases in Saravan and Arak, and the Khomeini Relief Committee in Saravan, with Molotov cocktails.
They also burned banners, signs promoting the compulsory hijab in Chaloos, the Ministry of Intelligence’s spy base in Karaj, and the pictures of Khomeini and Qassem Soleimani in Abyek, Behshahr, Kashan, and Kerman.
