ItalyIn Iran, two young men aged 23 and 27 were executed by hanging, part of a group of 12 individuals, including minors, sentenced to death for the killing of four police officers. Citizens attempted to block the executions in Isfahan’s Alikhani Square, but the police used force, shooting at protesters.
