BREAKING: We shamed the UNHRC fact-finding mission on Iran into issuing their first statement. They were completely silent since being created back in November. But a day after our tweet went viral (https://t.co/00ivwWKBaq), they were shamed into finally breaking their silence. https://t.co/7hwzYQoptr

Thank you, Hezbollah-controlled government of Lebanon, for chairing the meeting where Vladimir Putin’s Russia announces its candidacy for the U.N. Human Rights Council. With your patron Iran just named as chair of the UNHRC’s Social Forum, why, it’s all a perfect match. https://t.co/6nK4MoEvmG

Today at the United Nations we hosted relatives of political prisoners held by:
🇨🇳 China—Peter Yang, son of ‘barefoot lawyer’ Guo Feixiong

Iran's Islamic regime being named chair of U.N. human rights social forum is a ‘slap in the face’: superb interview of @PahlaviReza by @MariaBartiromo. With the help of the Crown Prince, our campaign to cancel this disgusting appointment of a murderous regime will surely succeed. https://t.co/7IUI8fHg4S pic.twitter.com/W1nMzYb5H4

🇮🇷 The Islamic Regime in Iran charged two more actresses for appearing in public without wearing hijab.

🇮🇷 The Islamic Regime in Iran has executed 209 people so far this year, amounting to an average of 10 people put to death each week.
We urge UN chief @antonioguterres to speak out.https://t.co/TWWxpq2f7E

More than 50,000 have signed our petition. When we reach 100,000, we will circulate a resolution to overturn the appointment and remove the Islamic Republic of Iran from its position as Chair, before the U.N. Human Rights Council Forum opens in November.https://t.co/SbuLTlcujO pic.twitter.com/M0lINnVyrw

🇮🇷 The Islamic Regime in Iran hanged seven men on drugs and rape charges after the U.N. human rights chief warned of a “frighteningly” high number of executions in the country.
