Iran sentences 23-year-old to death for insulting Shia imams; 600 executions this year

Iran has sentenced Najmeh Amine to death for a social media post deemed insulting to Shia imams, with the judge reportedly questioning why she did not insult Israel. Amine claims she was under the influence of hallucinogenic mushrooms. The case is part of a broader crackdown, with at least 600 executions since the start of the year, signaling an escalation in the use of capital punishment for non-violent expression.
