In 2025, Iran broke a three-decade record: more than 1,100 death sentences in less than a year, with an unprecedented increase in executions of women, children, and political protesters.
In this episode, Sahar Naseri and Nazila Golestan, together with guest Hassan Naib Hashem, a physician and human rights activist, examine official and unofficial statistics to reveal the hidden realities of this policy of terror.
Executions are carried out in silence, yet they face civil resistance and movements such as “No to Executions Tuesdays”.
Can this death machine be stopped with the help of civil movements?

The Hamāva podcast series aims to expand the national discourse around universal values, democracy, the separation of religion and state, human rights, and gender equality. Within such a framework, through collective wisdom, we can work toward a free and proud Iran for all Iranians, regardless of their beliefs, ideas, gender, or ethnicity.
