Despite international condemnation, four men are now known to have been executed since the demonstrations began in September over the death of Mahsa Amini.

The judiciary's Mizan news agency said the men had been convicted of killing Ruhollah Ajamian, a member of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard's volunteer Basij force, in the city of Karaj outside of Tehran on Nov. 3.
