No bombs, no warships, no solid food on Tuesdays before executions on Wednesdays. Even while being bombed and threatened with warships.

113th Week of the “No to Execution Tuesdays” Campaign in 56 Prisons Across Iran

March 24, 2026

Political prisoners in 56 different prisons across the country continued their hunger strike in the 113th week of the “No to Execution Tuesdays” campaign. Members of this campaign, while condemning the widespread and arbitrary executions, particularly the execution of several protesters on the eve of Nowruz, called these actions an attempt by the regime to instill fear and terror in society. The striking prisoners, warning about the dire conditions of the prisons and the risk of execution for recent detainees in the shadow of communication blackouts, called upon the international community and human rights organizations to increase pressure on the Iranian regime to halt these sentences and secure the release of political prisoners.

Continuation of the “No to Execution Tuesdays” Campaign in its 113th Week in 56 Different Prisons

The “No to Execution Tuesdays” campaign congratulates the general public of Iran, and especially the families of those who lost their lives in the Dey [January] 1404 uprising and all the executed individuals of the past year who were massacred by the despotic and repressive “Velayat-e Faqih” regime, on the occasion of Eid al-Fitr and Nowruz 1405. We express our utmost thanks and appreciation to all individuals, teachers’ trade syndicates, retirees, workers, and families of those sentenced to death, as well as independent media and all those who served as the voice for death row inmates, and we hope that the year 1405 will be the year of Iran’s freedom—an Iran without torture and executions.

The execution regime has hanged over 2,650 of our compatriots in various parts of the country over the past year. Cruelly, on the eve of Nowruz, it executed three brave youths named Mehdi Ghasemi, Saeed Davoudi, and Saleh Mohammadi, who had been arrested during the Dey [January] protests, in Qom, and hanged another prisoner named Kourosh Keyvani on charges of espionage in Karaj Central Prison.

We, the members of the “No to Execution Tuesdays” campaign, while condemning the arbitrary and brutal executions carried out with the aim of creating fear and terror in society, call upon the United Nations, various countries, and human rights organizations to exert pressure on the Iranian regime so that the minimum rights of prisoners are respected. This is particularly crucial for those prisoners who have been arrested in recent months and are enduring torture in the midst of media silence and internet blackouts, facing the risk of death sentences; we also demand the release of political prisoners. Especially under the conditions of bombardments, the lives of prisoners are exposed to a double threat, and many prisoners are suffering from a lack of food and medical care. In the past week, dozens of prisoners in Chabahar Prison were killed and wounded by prison guards due to their protests against the lack of food supplies.

It should be noted that over the past two weeks, the statement of this campaign (Weeks 111 and 112) was not published due to communication blackouts.

The “No to Execution Tuesdays” campaign in its 113th week is on hunger strike in the following 56 prisons:
