• Meanwhile, the international human rights organization Amnesty International said that three young men were recently sentenced to death in Iran for their involvement in the anti-government movement. One of whom is only 18 years old.
• According to IHR, 107 protesters are still under threat of hanging. They have been charged with the highest crime. Mahmoud Amiri Moghaddam, director of IHR, said, "The Iranian government has increased the amount of executions to intimidate the protesters. No execution, whether political or non-political, will be tolerated.'

Mahmoud Amiri Moghaddam, director of IHR, said, 'There are political motives behind the executions carried out by the government. ...Basically, these things are being done to create fear in people's minds. '

The agency claimed that the lack of strong reaction on the issue at the international level is "increasing the courage of the administration".
