Iran Human Rights (IHR)

Iran Human Rights (IHR) is a Norway-based organization that monitors and reports on human rights violations in Iran, with a particular focus on executions. The organization is newsworthy due to the recent surge in protests and government crackdowns in Iran. IHR recently reported that executions in Iran have more than doubled in 2025 compared to 2024, verifying at least 1,500 executions by early December. This report, along with other reports of mass killings and internet blackouts, highlights the severity of the human rights situation in Iran. IHR's work is crucial for documenting and raising awareness about the Iranian government's actions during this period of unrest, providing a vital source of information amidst government censorship and conflicting reports.
