Iran has executed a foreign national convicted of involvement in January protests and unrest in Isfahan, according to the country’s semi-official Tasnim news agency. The execution was reported on August 20, 2026. Tasnim identified the man as Ghayem Hosseini, also known as Arian, and said he had been found guilty over his role in mass demonstrations and instability.
The report said four police officers were killed during the protests. Tasnim said Hosseini was convicted in connection with that incident, though the source did not provide further details about the court proceedings, his nationality, or the timing of the execution.
Tasnim said the death sentence was carried out after all legal procedures had been completed. It cited accusations of displaying weapons, creating fear and panic, undermining public security, and causing widespread disorder. The report attributed the information to Tasnim and listed Al Jazeera as its source.
