Note the Iran executes more women than any other country. Most of the women are victims of forced and abusive marriages. The silence of those in the US supporting Hamas is expected since, IMO, they are being deluded by a TikTok and other social media by....wait for it.....hostile agencies in Russia and Iran.
[h1]Iran hangs two women as surge in executions intensifies: NGO[/h1]
IHR says it has tallied at least 223 executions this year, with at least 50 so far in May alone. A new surge began following the end of Persian New Year and Ramadan holidays in April, with 115 people including six women hanged since then, it said.
Iran carries out more recorded executions of women than any other country. Activists say many such convicts are victims of forced or abusive marriages.
Iran last year carried out more hangings than in any year since 2015, according to NGOs, which accuse the Islamic republic of using capital punishment as a means to instil fear in the wake of protests that erupted in autumn 2022.
"The silence of the international community is unacceptable," IHR director Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam told AFP.
"Those executed belong to the poor and marginalised groups of Iranian society and didn't have fair trials with due process."
