<p>According to multiple reports, including a <a href="https://iranhumanrights.org/2025/08/scores-of-political-prisoners-will-be-executed-in-iran-without-an-international-outcry/">comprehensive study</a> by the Center for Human Rights in Iran (CHRI), Iran’s repressive, despotic Islamic regime has carried out hundreds of executions in 2025. More than 100 of these took place in a wave of repression following the 12-day Israel–Iran war. CHRI warns that 10 political prisoners face imminent execution, with nearly 70 others at high risk.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“All after grotesquely flawed judicial proceedings marked by fabricated charges, lack of evidence, denial of counsel and due process rights, torture, and forced false confessions—is a human rights emergency that the international community should be aggressively addressing in all diplomatic channels and forums,” CHRI declared.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“At least 730 people have been executed in Iranian prisons over the past seven months, including 102 in July alone,” the Abdorrahman Boroumand Center for Human Rights has <a href="https://www.iranrights.org/library/document/5039">reported</a>, adding, “The report was released a few days after the UN Human Rights Office said at least 612 people were executed in the first half of 2025, more than double the number recorded in the same period last year.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“These executions in Iran are nothing less than state-sanctioned murders based on fabricated charges, coerced confessions, and secret proceedings,” CHRI executive director Hadi Ghaemi said. “They constitute grave and irreversible human rights violations, and the absence of sustained international pressure has allowed the Islamic Republic to continue these killings with impunity.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">In addition, the Iranian regime is attempting to cover up its crimes during the state massacres of the 1980s by paving over the graves of people the regime murdered. The regime is doing so by “building a parking lot over Tehran’s Behesht Zahra cemetery where many of the bodies were dumped,” CHRI <a href="https://iranhumanrights.org/2025/08/irans-destruction-of-graves-from-1980s-state-massacres-must-be-condemned/">pointed out</a>.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">“Impunity for atrocities and crimes against humanity has been building for decades in the Islamic Republic,” Ghaemi said. “There is a direct line between the massacres of the 1980s, the gunning down of demonstrators in 2009, and the mass killings of protesters in 2019 and 2022. The Islamic Republic has learned it can kill huge numbers of its opponents—real or imagined—at will and without any real consequences. Until this ceases to be the case, this regime will continue to carry out mass killings, in the streets and at the gallows.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">CHRI added:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="font-weight: 400;"><em>By paving over these graves, the Islamic Republic is destroying critical evidence of the atrocities it committed, such as in <a style="font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit;" href="https://iranhumanrights.org/2017/05/an-interview-with-scholar-and-historian-ervand-abrahamian-on-the-islamic-republics-greatest-crime/">1988</a>, when it hanged and threw into mass graves some 5000 political prisoners, most of whom were already sentenced and serving their prison sentences. Numerous UN experts have <a style="font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit;" href="https://spcommreports.ohchr.org/TMResultsBase/DownLoadPublicCommunicationFile?gId=25503">stated</a> these mass executions constitute a crime against humanity—and one in which there has never been any accountability by any official in Iran. Indeed, many of the officials involved went on to serve <a style="font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit;" href="https://iranhumanrights.org/2021/08/swedish-trial-of-iranian-prosecutor-offers-historic-opportunity-to-shed-light-on-irans-1988-massacre/">high-level positions</a> in the Islamic Republic. </em></p>
</blockquote>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“For over four decades, the Islamic Republic has assiduously gone after family members seeking justice for many egregious state abuses—trying to intimidate and silence them so that they don’t publicize the state’s crimes and atrocities, or when they are not successful—<a style="font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit;" href="https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2023/08/iran-respect-families-right-to-commemorate-loved-ones-killed-during-uprising-without-reprisals-on-one-year-anniversary/">punishing them with arbitrary arrest and detentions</a> for trying to hold state officials accountable for unlawful deaths in the street, in state custody, or at the gallows,” CHRI asserted. “Destruction of grave sites and depriving the state’s victims and their families of the ability to mourn and memorialize, is just one among many ways that the Islamic Republic has sought to erase its crimes, avoid accountability, and punish those who seek justice. The graves of the victims of state massacres during the 1980s are not the only ones the Iranian authorities have destroyed. The graves of other mass killings during and beyond the 1980s have also been bulldozed, built over, or used as a garbage dump by the Islamic Republic.”</p>
