Anti-government protests have continued in Iran with thousands feared dead after the government crackdown on demonstrators.
One protester, 26-year-old Erfan Soltani, will reportedly be “executed tomorrow”, with the Hengaw Organisation for Human Rights saying they “have never witnessed a case move so quickly”.
The protests, which began in Tehran on 28 December, were sparked by the collapse of the Iranian currency.
