Iran executed three men convicted of armed unrest and working for Israel and the US during January protests
Iran executed Hassan Dioband, Hamid Kazemi, and Reza Zanganeh on Sunday after the Supreme Court upheld death sentences for firearms and arson attacks in Karaj during January protests. The judiciary said the men damaged an electricity substation and set fire to public facilities, and that ten others arrested under Dioband's supervision received prison terms of 5 to 10 years.
