This morning, Iranian opposition sources reported that large crowds gathered outside the prison in Isfahan where protesters were executed earlier in the day. According to the reports, security forces attempted to disperse the crowds, leading to clashes. Some reports indicate that a woman was shot dead during the confrontation.
The development comes minutes after The Zioneer reported at 05:44 that Iran executed three additional January protesters early this morning. That report followed earlier bulletins: at 04:29, The Zioneer reported that snipers had opened fire on protesters near an execution square, and at 02:06, Iranian opposition sources stated that four young people were scheduled for execution in Isfahan's Ali Khani Square.
The regime has been facing an escalating wave of public dissent since late July, with executions and security force crackdowns drawing international attention. The Isfahan prison has become a focal point of the protests, with reports of prisoners on strike and widespread clashes.
The identity of the woman reportedly killed remains unconfirmed, and the reports have not been independently verified. The Zioneer continues to monitor the situation.
