The “No to Executions Tuesdays” campaign has entered the one 107th week of its strike. Participating prisoners issued a statement this week addressing prison conditions and the situation of executions.
Political prisoners participating in this campaign called on their fellow citizens in Iran, under these conditions, to raise their voices and protest. They also stressed that in these sensitive circumstances, they aspire to reach a free and equal Iran, free of violence and executions, with the right of self-determination exercised by the people.

In another part of the “No to Executions Tuesdays” statement, a sharp increase in the implementation of execution sentences during the month of Bahman (late January to mid-February) was noted. At the same time, hundreds of other prisoners are at risk of receiving or having execution sentences carried out.
The full text of the “No to Executions Tuesdays” campaign statement
According to reports and information obtained during the proud uprising of January 2026, the repressive agents of the Iranian regime, in addition to massacring thousands of innocent people, arrested tens of thousands of Iranian citizens and youth, subjecting many of them to physical and psychological pressure to extract forced confessions.
According to the same reports, as part of intensifying the atmosphere of repression and public intimidation, the execution-oriented government has arrested a number of lawyers, physicians, and medical staff, reflecting its growing fear of the brave uprising of the people in the previous month of Dey (December–January).
The ruling despotic regime, over the past three weeks (from January 21 to the present), has executed more than 207 people, including two women. In addition to the hundreds and thousands of detained prisoners who are unidentified and at risk of the medieval sentence of execution, in recent days Kurdish political prisoner Nasser Bakarzadeh has been sentenced to death for the third time and faces a serious risk of execution.
Here, we call on the brave and courageous people of Iran to be the voice of detainees and political prisoners, and we ask the families of those detained to raise their cries of protest against oppression, injustice, and widespread and extrajudicial arrests, and to support their loved ones.
Indeed! Fellow citizens, under these conditions silence is not an option; the only option and the path to salvation is to raise one’s voice and protest. In these sensitive circumstances, we aspire to reach a free and equal Iran, free of violence and executions, and with the “right of self-determination” exercised by the people.
Political prisoners participating in the “No to Executions Tuesdays” campaign are on hunger strike on Tuesday, February 10, in the 107th week of the campaign, across 56 prisons nationwide.
