23 December 2025<\/strong> Breathing in Confinement, the news outlet of the Prisoners\u2019 Rights League in Iran, on a night that recalls the longest darkness and the promise of the birth of light, we mark one hundred weeks of steadfast resistance\u2014one hundred weeks standing against a death the rulers sought to normalise. The prisoners\u2019 statement is a narrative of tears and courage; of hearts that beat behind bars, families who stood firm, and voices that were not silenced despite the gallows. \u201cTuesdays Against Execution\u201d is not merely a campaign, but a human outcry against cruelty\u2014reminding us that even in the darkest nights, hope for life and justice endures and finds its way.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Statement of the 100th Week of the \u201cTuesdays Against Execution\u201d Campaign<\/strong><\/p>\n One hundred weeks of relentless struggle against the machinery of killing and the gallows<\/p>\n \u201cWith congratulations on Yalda Night to all compatriots, to the imprisoned members of the \u2018Tuesdays Against Execution\u2019 campaign, and to every prisoner sentenced to death\u2014and with the hope for the abolition of the death penalty in a free and prosperous Iran.<\/p>\n Despite many ups and downs, acts of bravery, and the most painful nights marked by the execution of our companions and fellow prisoners, the \u2018Tuesdays Against Execution\u2019 campaign has, in its 100th week, continued its path with undiminished resolve.<\/p>\n One hundred weeks of saying no to execution; An illegitimate government which\u2014according to the 72nd United Nations resolution, adopted in last week\u2014has, in 2025 alone, executed more than 2,000 people to date (more than double the number in 2024), with the aim of intimidation and repression.<\/p>\n This campaign will continue without pause and will persist until the abolition of the inhumane death penalty.<\/p>\n We have learned that, coinciding with the 100th week of the \u2018Tuesdays Against Execution\u2019 campaign, the women\u2019s ward of Yazd Prison has also declared its participation. We extend our greetings and gratitude to these courageous individuals, and we hope that other prisons across the country will join this campaign in the future, so that we may reach a day when the \u2018No to Execution\u2019 campaign spreads nationwide and paves the way for the abolition of this inhumane punishment.<\/p>\n The number of executions in the past month has reached 357.<\/p>\n This wave of killings and executions reflects the extremely critical condition of a regime that, caught in an inescapable vortex of political, social, and economic crises\u2014rendering even ordinary daily life impossible for the people\u2014has turned to the execution of prisoners. In a profoundly flawed assessment of Iranian society, it believes that displaying such brutality through the execution of the youth of this land can pre-empt future protests. Yet this unrestrained savagery has not healed, and will not heal, the wounds of despotism.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Hunger Strike Locations \u2013 100th Week<\/p>\n Tuesday, 23 December 2025 \u2013 55 prisons<\/p>\n Evin Prison (women\u2019s and men\u2019s wards); Qezel Hesar Prison (Units 2, 3, and 4); Karaj Central Prison; Fardis Prison (Karaj); Greater Tehran Prison; Qarchak Prison; Khorin Prison (Varamin); Choubindar Prison (Qazvin); Ahar Prison; Arak Prison; Langeroud Prison (Qom); Khorramabad Prison; Borujerd Prison; Yasuj Prison; Asadabad Prison (Isfahan); Dastgerd Prison (Isfahan); Sheiban Prison (Ahvaz); Sepidar Prison (Ahvaz, women\u2019s and men\u2019s wards); Nezam Prison (Shiraz); Adelabad Prison (Shiraz, women\u2019s and men\u2019s wards); Firouzabad Prison (Fars); Dehdasht Prison; Zahedan Prison (women\u2019s and men\u2019s wards); Borazjan Prison; Ramhormoz Prison; Behbahan Prison; Bam Prison; Yazd Prison (women\u2019s and men\u2019s wards); Kahnooj Prison; Tabas Prison; Birjand Central Prison; Mashhad Prison; Sabzevar Prison; Gonbad-e Kavus Prison; Qaemshahr Prison; Rasht Prison (women\u2019s and men\u2019s wards); Roudsar Prison; Haviq Prison (Talesh); Azbarom Prison (Lahijan); Dizel-Abad Prison (Kermanshah); Ardabil Prison; Tabriz Prison; Urmia Prison; Salmas Prison; Khoy Prison; Naqadeh Prison; Miandoab Prison; Mahabad Prison; Bukan Prison; Saqqez Prison; Baneh Prison; Marivan Prison; Sanandaj Prison; Kamyaran Prison; and Ilam Prison.<\/p>\n Week 100<\/strong> 23 December 2025 News group: Prisoners Breathing in Confinement – The “Tuesdays Against Execution” hunger strike by political prisoners has reached its 100th week, now spanning 55 prisons across the country.
