Five prisoners were executed at Ghezel Hesar Prison in Karaj, Alborz Province, early on Wednesday, July 15. One of them was Aref Khoshkar, who had been detained during Iran’s 2022 nationwide protests. The four others had been sentenced to death on murder charges. One of them has been identified as Abbas Nesari.At the same time, prisoners in Unit 2 refused their food rations for a third consecutive day and continued a sit-in to protest the executions and the transfer of six death-row prisoners to solitary confinement ahead of the implementation of their sentences. Reports indicate that the health of at least one hunger striker has deteriorated.Holding signs reading No to Executions, the protesting prisoners called for an end to the implementation of death sentences, particularly in cases involving drug related offenses.@iranhrdc#DigitalBlackoutIran#iran_strikes #iran_human_rights#iranmassacre#Aref_Khoshkar
