Hanged under the cover of war: letters and videos tell stories of Iran’s death row victims

Letters, videos, and witness accounts smuggled out of Iranian prisons detail a sharp rise in executions of political prisoners and anti-regime protesters by the Iranian government since March 2026, carried out under the cover of ongoing regional war to suppress domestic dissent. At least 16 men were executed in a one-month period, 11 additional political prisoners remain on death row, and Norway-based human rights group Iran Human Rights confirms the unprecedented rate of political executions is enabled by global focus on the ongoing conflict.
