On May 19th, in Isfahan, the lives of three young Iranians, Majid, Saleh, and Saeed, were unjustly taken through execution. This tragic act has only fueled our anger towards the Islamic Republic regime and strengthened our determination to fight for our country. Throughout recent months, numerous Iranian citizens have faced execution across various regions, including Isfahan, Hormozgan, Khuzistan, Sistan & Beluchistan, and others. Injustice prevails with sham trials and denial of independent legal representation. Countless Iranian families mourn the loss of their loved ones, as the media is denied access to crucial details of these deadly proceedings. The Islamic Republic seeks ruthless revenge, persecuting those who seek justice and sending them to the gallows. Meanwhile, perpetrators of past state crimes, such as the 1980s mass executions, the brutal crackdown on the green movement, the Aban protest massacres, the mass murder of flight PS752, and the brutal killings during the Woman, Life, Freedom revolt, enjoy freedom under state protection. Iran must not regress to the dark times that led to the tragic murder of Mahsa (Jina) Amini. The vengeful actions of the Islamic Regime against its citizens only ignite our anger and reinforce our determination. The international community, especially the free world, must break its silence in the face of these inhumane atrocities. Granting the presidency of the United Nations Human Rights Council to a criminal state undermines the very foundation of that institution. World leaders either fail to understand or choose to ignore the majority of Iranians who reject the Islamic Republic regime, demanding an end to injustice, brutality, and malice. We must stand united behind the people of Iran in their historic fight for justice and freedom. Our demands from the international governing bodies are clear:
۱٫ They must denounce rampant human rights abuses in Iran. We demand the immediate and unconditional release of all political prisoners. The free world must utilize all means available to halt the execution of innocent civilians.
۲٫ Iranians must have free and unrestricted internet access. Support is vital in ensuring this.
۳٫ Assistance should be provided to the families of victims and resistance fighters, who bravely risk their lives for freedom and democracy.
۴٫ Representatives of the Islamic Republic regime should be expelled from other countries, and the designation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps as a terrorist organization must be promptly acknowledged. The Iranian community worldwide is mobilizing to support their compatriots enduring unspeakable atrocities. Lives have been needlessly lost, yet each atrocity committed by the Islamic regime fuels our collective determination. We are unwavering in our fight for justice, freedom, and the overthrow of this heartless criminal state.
Together, we stand united on this challenging journey, striving to create a free and democratic Iran. We will never forget those who stand against life, nor shall we grant them our forgiveness.
