Iran has executed at least 1,000 people in 2025: NGO

PARIS, Sept 23, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Iran has executed at least 1,000 people so 
far in 2025, an NGO said on Tuesday, denouncing a "mass killing campaign" in 
prisons in the Islamic republic.

At least 64 executions took place in the past week alone, an average of more 
than nine hangings per day, said the Norway-based Iran Human Rights (IHR) 
group, which counts and verifies executions in Iran on a daily basis.
