Iran Issues Stark Warning on Executions Amid Protests
Iran has delivered a defiant response to the United States. The country firmly rejects American claims that it stopped mass executions following weeks of deadly nationwide protests. Iranian officials now state that thousands died during the unrest. They blame this violence on what they call terrorists and armed rioters. These groups, they claim, receive support from foreign enemies.
Conflicting Narratives and International Alarm
Washington presents a very different story. The US accuses Tehran of brutal repression against its own people. This clash of narratives creates a tense international atmosphere. Conflicting death tolls add to the confusion. Reports of severe crackdowns and internet blackouts continue to emerge. These developments fuel growing alarm among global observers.
Khamenei's Fiery Rhetoric and Judicial Warnings
Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei did not mince words. He launched a sharp verbal attack on former US President Donald Trump. Khamenei labeled Trump a criminal in his recent statements. Meanwhile, Iran's judiciary issued its own stern warning. Officials indicated that executions could still proceed. These would be under the serious charge of Mohareb, which means waging war against God.
The situation remains volatile. Iran's declaration signals no mercy for those it deems criminals. The world watches closely as this geopolitical standoff continues to unfold.
