The Women's Affairs Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) published a report on the executions carried out by the authorities against male and female detainees.

The report indicated that the total number of executions in Eastern Kurdistan and Iran over the past nine months reached 1,175 people, including 38 women. It also stated that between July 30 and September 30, 14 women were executed, an average of one woman every four days, according to Roj News Agency.

The report explained that the high number of women executed is a means of suppressing women and spreading fear, especially since women have always been at the forefront of protests and uprisings against the regime.

The report recorded the number of women executed in previous years as follows:

34 women in 2024

26 women in 2023

15 women in 2022

The report also confirmed that more than 300 women have been executed since 2007, amid the ongoing repression of women in Iran and Eastern Kurdistan.
