"They executed eight women" - Iran denies Donald Trump's claims

Iranian authorities have officially reacted to US President Donald Trump's statements regarding the fate of eight women imprisoned in the Islamic Republic. In a statement broadcast on state television, Iran rejected reports that the women risked the death penalty, describing Washington's alarm as baseless.

The Mizan news agency, which represents the official voice of the Iranian judiciary, clarified that the legal proceedings against them do not foresee execution.

"The claims that eight women are facing execution are false. Some of them have already been released, while others face charges that — if proven by the court — will result in prison sentences rather than death," state television quoted the judiciary as saying.

Lack of transparency and reports of organizations

Despite the official denial, authorities in Tehran did not specify the identities of the women who were allegedly released, leaving room for suspicion among international observers. The statement comes at a time when human rights organizations have raised the alarm about the risk facing some of the prisoners.

According to reports from international human rights centers, the situation remains critical for at least two of them.

“Our data shows that at least two of the women included in this list face specific charges that, under the Iranian penal code, carry the death penalty,” the human rights activists reported.

Part of a wider clash

This exchange of statements comes at the height of diplomatic tensions between the US and Iran, where the issue of human rights has become a bargaining chip at the negotiating table. While the Trump administration uses these cases to increase pressure on Tehran, the latter accuses the West of interfering in its domestic judicial system and spreading disinformation in the media.

To this day, the names and current legal status of the eight women remain the subject of a fierce information battle between official Tehran and Western intelligence sources.
