Iranian authorities have sentenced Najmeh Amini, a 23-year-old accounting student, to death for blasphemy over a social media post, alongside a 12-year prison term in a separate case. Rights groups report at least 600 executions in Iran this year, indicating an escalating use of capital punishment to suppress dissent. The case highlights the regime's intensified crackdown on online expression, though the specific post and trial details remain unclear.
