Join the 84th week of “No to Execution Tuesdays” as 51 Iranian prisons protest executions, demanding human rights and justice.
Iran Human Rights Society, Tuesday, September 2, 2025 – The No to Execution Tuesdays campaign champions justice, amplifying grieving families and prisoners. On September 2, 2025, inmates across 51 Iranian prisons launched a hunger strike, marking the 84th week of this movement against executions and death sentences. This campaign unites freedom-seekers, condemning brutal tactics to suppress dissent. Let’s explore why this movement matters and how it grows.
A Cry Against Injustice: The Campaign’s Mission
Prisoners protest the execution spree, which claimed 39 lives last week, including two women, and 704 since March 21, 2025. These figures expose a grim reality: executions instill fear and silence calls for freedom. However, the campaign stands firm, declaring no government should take a life without fair trials. Instead, it champions dignity and justice, ensuring victims inspire hope.
Honoring the Fallen: A Call for Remembrance
The campaign marks the 40th day since the execution of two political prisoners on July 24, 2025. Their families still don’t know their burial sites, a cruel act of torment. This inhumane tactic reveals a pattern of abuses. Yet, the prisoners’ resolve strengthens, vowing to keep their memory alive, fueling a future free from violence.
Growing Resistance: 51 Prisons Strong
With Qom’s Langarud Prison joining, the campaign now spans 51 prisons, reflecting widespread resistance. This growth shows prisoners and society uniting against executions. Furthermore, the movement amplifies bereaved families’ voices, pushing for the abolition of death sentences and respect for human rights. Consequently, it inspires hope for a just Iran.
Condolences for a Supporter’s Loss
The campaign expresses heartfelt condolences to the family of a supporter who actively backed No to Execution Tuesdays and attended gatherings. His loss strengthens the resolve to fight for justice, ensuring his legacy endures in the movement’s mission.
No to Execution Tuesdays remains a beacon of hope, uniting prisoners, families, and freedom-seekers. By rejecting executions, it demands accountability and human dignity. Therefore, it calls on all to join the fight, ensuring no more lives are lost to injustice. Together, we can build a future where justice prevails.
