Manchester, UK – July 2, 2026: Members of the Academics in Exile Association in the UK, supporters of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), held a book table and photo exhibition in Manchester to highlight Iran’s deteriorating human rights situation. The event drew attention to the regime’s intensifying wave of executions, including those of political prisoners and protesters detained during the January 2026 uprising.

Through photographs, publications, and testimonies, the organizers sought to draw public attention to the suffering of the Iranian people and their determination to reject all forms of dictatorship, whether monarchical and theocratic.

Participants called on the international community to stand with the Iranian people and support their aspiration for freedom, human rights, and the establishment of a democratic republic in Iran. The event also served as a tribute to those who have lost their lives in the struggle for justice and democratic change.
