Saleh Mohammadi, a 19-year-old member of the Iranian national wrestling team, has been executed.
Idman.Biz reports this with reference to CBS.
The athlete was accused of involvement in the deaths of police officers during protests in January 2026, as well as carrying out "operational measures" on behalf of Israel and the United States. The execution took place in the city of Qom.
Mass protests in Iran began in January 2026 against the background of the country's difficult economic and political situation. The authorities harshly suppressed the protests, which caused a reaction from the international community, including threats from US President Donald Trump to strike Iran.
