Iran has executed three people convicted of killing police officers during the recent nationwide protests, according to the country's judiciary. The executions have drawn international condemnation and raised further concerns about human rights violations in the country.
The three men, Saleh Mirhashemi, Majid Kazemi, and Saeed Yaghoubi, were allegedly involved in the killing of two law enforcement personnel during the protests that erupted in September 2022 over the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman who died after being detained by the country's morality police.
