At dawn on Saturday, October 4, 2025, the Iranian regime executed six ethnic Arab citizens in Ahvaz after seven years of imprisonment, labeling them as “separatists affiliated with the Zionist regime.” Additionally, one ethnic Kurdish citizen was executed in Sanandaj after 12 years of imprisonment for the killing of Mamousta Sheikh-ol-Eslam, a regime cleric.
In response to these brutal executions, on the evening of October 4, Iran’s rebellious youth carried out a series of operations against regime targets. They attacked the regime’s centers of suppression and repression and set fire to government banners bearing the images of regime founder Ruhollah Khomeini, supreme leader Ali Khamenei, the terror master Qassem Soleimani, and the current president Masoud Pezeshkian.
The 15 fiery responses by the rebellious youth to the seven criminal executions are as follows:
- Three attacks on the command center of the repressive State Security Force in Farsan
- Setting fire to a center of fundamentalism and terrorism in Tehran
- Setting fire to an IRGC Basij base in Isfahan
- Setting fire to a center of fundamentalism and terrorism in Islamabad-e Gharb
- Setting fire to headquarters of the Khomeini foundation, a Basij base, and a regime center for plundering public wealth in Azna
- Setting fire to a center of fundamentalism and terrorism in Qom
- Setting fire to two IRGC Basij bases in Tehran
- Setting fire to two IRGC Basij bases in Kermanshah
- Setting fire to an IRGC Basij base in Sanandaj
- Setting fire to government posters and banners with images of Khomeini, Khamenei, Soleimani, and Pezeshkian in Mashhad, Isfahan, Shiraz, Bushehr, and Neyshabur
On Thursday, October 2, 2025, the Secretariat of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) announced that in an unprecedented record, the regime’s judiciary, under the orders of Khamenei, executed at least 200 prisoners, including six women, in September 2025. This is the highest number of executions in a single month in the past 36 years. The number of executions this month is approximately 2.5 times that of September 2024 (84 executions) and 7 times that of September 2023 (29 executions).
Thus, the number of executions during Masoud Pezeshkian’s presidency has reached 1,907, revealing that beyond populist claims, the common language of all factions within the clerical regime is execution, torture, and massacre.
In a statement, five United Nations Special Rapporteurs described the brutal bloodshed by the clerical regime as an “unprecedented execution spree” in Iran and “staggering and represents a grave violation of the right to life,” announcing that more than 1,000 people have been executed in Iran in less than nine months in 2025.
The UN Special Rapporteurs noted in their report, “With an average of more than nine hangings per day in recent weeks, Iran appears to be conducting executions at an industrial scale that defies all accepted standards of human rights protection.”
To sustain his aging and crisis-ridden rule, Khamenei attempts to extend the expired life of his regime through mass executions. He seeks to project power by taking lives. But this is evidently not a sign of strength, but an expression of terror in the face of an explosive situation and the rebellion of a fed-up populace chanting in the streets, “We will not live under oppression” and “Neither threats, nor prison, nor execution can stop us.”
By targeting centers of suppression, IRGC and Basij bases, and images of Khamenei and Khomeini, the brave vanguards of the rebellious youth are spreading the message among the people that the decaying palace of a regime that relies on slaughter and execution will collapse before the power of the people and rebels fighting for freedom.
