Protest against executions in Iran

A demonstrator dressed as a handmaid from The Handmaid's Tale participates in a march against the Islamic regime's execution of protesters in Iran. To date, two 23-year-old protesters have been executed: Mohsen Shekari and Majidreza Rahnavard, for ''waging war against God.'' Protests against the Islamic regime began in response to the death of Mahsa Amini but have evolved into a widespread movement against the regime. Protesters in- and outside the country continue to demand a secular, democratic Iran. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
