Iran Executes Pedram Madani for Alleged Mossad Espionage
- Iran hanged Pedram Madani on Wednesday after convicting him of spying for Israel, as announced by state media.

- Madani’s execution highlights Iran’s intensified use of capital punishment amid a surge in state-led executions this year, drawing calls for international pressure to halt this practice.
