KJAR launched the "No to Death, Yes to Free Life" campaign on the 14th anniversary of the execution of activist Shirin Alam Hooli and her comrades. 

The campaign has received support from various women's organizations worldwide, including Italian and Colombian activists.

The women’s coordination in Turin, Italy, sent a video message to KJAR, expressing their support for "women whose rights have been violated by the anti-woman regime."

The statement also called for the release of activists Sharifa Mohammadi and Bakhshan Azizi, with the message: "No to death sentences, yes to free life," and the main slogan of the women's uprising in East Kurdistan and Iran: "Women, Life, Freedom."

Colombian women have also supported the campaign, declaring their backing for KJAR’s fight against the death sentences for Bakhshan Azizi and Sharifa Mohammadi.

On July 23, Bakhshan Azizi was sentenced to death, and on July 4, Sharifa Mohammadi received a similar sentence. Both activists were under surveillance for weeks and faced pressure and torture.
