  By Struan Stevenson As diplomats debate ceasefires, nuclear agreements and regional security, another crisis is unfolding inside Iran with alarming speed. While global attention remains fixed on war and negotiations, the clerical regime has launched one of its most extensive campaigns of political executions and repression in recent memory. Young protesters, political activists, students and opposition supporters are being sent to the gallows while much of the democratic world remains distracted.

On November 10, 2020, coinciding with the anniversary of the November 2019 uprising and the holding of online conferences in this regard in more than 2400 locations around the world, members of the MEK in Albania commemorated the martyrs of this uprising. They held a commemoration ceremony while carrying photos of the uprising martyrs in different parts of Ashraf 3 in Albania.
