- whereas Iran continues to disproportionally apply the death penalty to members of minority communities, especially the Kurdish and Baluchi communities; whereas in 2024 executions have increased, with 901 persons executed; whereas women, protesters, activists and other critics of the state are increasingly being executed after trials without guarantees;
