Iran Executes 13 Prisoners As U.S. Carrier Hurries into Position
No, President Trump. The hangings haven't stopped and neither have the regime's trumped up charges against protesters.
Iran's executions continue unabated.
Human rights organization Hengaw reported today that Iranian authorities executed 13 prisoners today across prisons in Sari (Mazandaran Province), Tabriz (East Azerbaijan), Isfahan, Qom, and Shiraz (Fars Province).
The individuals were convicted on charges including premeditated murder, rape, and drug-related offenses. Identified victims include:
This fits into a broader surge in executions during Iran's 2025–2026 protests, where rights groups like HRANA and Iran Human Rights (IHRNGO) have documented at least 1,922 executions in 2025 alone, with dozens more in early 2026 amid the unrest.
Estimates of protest-related deaths range from 3,000 to over 20,000, with fears of mass executions looming for detainees.
President Trump promised that help was on the way and called off at least one massive operation against the regime last week. Many believe that the op was not canceled, it was just potsponed. But for thousands of Iranians, it's already too late.
Israel remains in a state of high vigilance regarding the possibility of an American military strike in Iran, according to a report by Gili Cohen on Kan 11 News.
Top-level security discussions and situation assessments have continued in Jerusalem over the last few days, as the United States actively increases its military presence in the region and notably takes steps to ensure these maneuvers are highly visible to the regime.
American officials view the ongoing internet blackout imposed by Tehran as a clear indication of the regime's panic in the face of internal unrest.
A US official clarified the administration's strategy, stating that the "maximum pressure" campaign is targeted strictly at the Iranian regime, not the Iranian public. The official emphasized that the US will "continue to support internet access for the Iranian people," describing it as a vital tool to "expose the truth about what is happening in Iran."
