A person who was said to be a spy of Israel's "Mossad" intelligence service was executed in Iran's Sistan and Baluchistan region.

In 2022, Iran executed a participant in the protests that swept the country after the killing of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini in a police station. 24-year-old Mohammad Qubadlu was found guilty of killing one person and injuring five law enforcement officers in Tehran.

In Alabama, 58-year-old Kenneth Smith, who was sentenced to death for contract murder in 1988, was executed. For the first time, the process was carried out using pure nitrogen. An attempt was made to execute the prisoner in 2022, but it did not happen.

It is said that 29 people were executed in one day in Iran, including 26 people in a prison in the city of Kerej. Among them are two Afghan citizens accused of murder, drug addiction and rape.
