Iran on Monday executed four Kurdish political prisoners accused by the Islamist regime of planning a bombing attack in the central city of Isfahan that was supposedly orchestrated by Israel\u2019s Mossad intelligence agency.<\/span><\/p>\n

The four men \u2014 Mohsen Mazloum, Mohammad Faramarzi, Vafa Azarbar, and Pejman Fatehi \u2014 were charged by the Iranian authorities with having illegally entered Iran from Iraqi Kurdistan, for the purpose of bombing a factory in Isfahan that produces equipment for the Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe death sentence of four members of a group affiliated with the Zionist spy organization \u2026 was carried out this morning,\u201d the Iranian judiciary\u2019s website Mizan Online<\/em> reported.<\/span><\/p>\n

The four Kurds were all members of the left-wing Komala Party, one of several Kurdish organizations banned by the Iranian regime, according to the Kurdish news website Rudaw<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The US government condemned the executions in a statement on Tuesday, excoriating Iran\u2019s \u201cblatant disregard for human rights\u201d and emphasizing that it had received reports of \u201ctorture and unfair trials.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

News that the Iranian authorities were refusing to hand the bodies of the executed prisoners to their families sparked an angry reaction across Kurdistan.<\/span><\/p>\n

General strikes were held in protest of the executions at bazaars in the cities of Mahabad, Dehgolan, Marivan, Divandarreh, Kermanshah, Bukan, Saqqez, Sanandaj and Sarvabad, according to photos and videos published on Kurdish social media in Iran. Videos also depicted large numbers of people visiting the houses of the executed prisoners\u2019 families in Bukan, Dehgolan, Kamyaran, and Mahabad to pay their respects and express solidarity with them, Rudaw<\/em> reported.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the Kurdish Hengaw Organziation for Human Rights, internet and telephone services have been disrupted in many of Iran\u2019s Kurdish cities, and helicopters of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) are patrolling the sky in several cities as well. A large number of security forces have been deployed to the areas where the strikes are being held.<\/span><\/p>\n

In December, Hengaw reported that Iranian prisons had executed 144 Kurdish prisoners in 2023, a significant rise on the previous year, when Iran executed 52 Kurdish prisoners.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many of those who are executed in Iran \u2014 which executes more prisoners annually than any other country bar China \u2014 are convicted based on confessions often obtained under duress, Hengaw stressed.<\/span><\/p>\n
