Sophie Turner, Viola Davis condemn Iran's order to execute anti-hijab protesters
Sophie Turner and Viola Davis
In a massive public outcry, Hollywood celebrities are reacting to the news of Iran executing people who protested against moral policing. Among the many is 27-year-old Kurdish rapper Saman Yasin who has been sentenced to death for joining the anti-hijab protests.
A section of the media has reported that there has been a mass execution order of 15,000 protesters, but there's no official word on it, and it's most likely fake news.
The Iranian parliament has issued this order as a “good lesson” for stepping out of the line and allegedly waging a war against the Islamic establishment as part of anti-hijab protests.
There is also news of human rights abuse and sexual abuse of the female detainees at the hands of the local police.
Shocked at the latest developments, celebrities like Sophie Turner of ‘Game of Thrones’ fame, and Viola Davis have taken to their social media to spread the word about this hate.
Sophie shared an image of an Iranian woman with the message: Iran sentences 15000 protestors to death as a “hard lesson” for all rebels. She posted the image with text that reads: “There is a mass execution about to happen in Iran over the recent protests. Please share this… this is one of the biggest humanitarian crises anyone has ever seen. Where is the coverage?! Why isn’t this on the cover of your magazines? Or the headlines of your newspapers? The irony is… Iran sits on the UN women’s rights committee….”

Viola Davis posted the same image with caption: “Omg!!! This is a humanitarian crisis 💔Iran is sentencing 15,000+ people to death - as a “hard lesson” for all rebels How this isn’t getting more coverage right now is beyond me, but that needs to change now!"
The two posts have been taked down now.
It all started after a 22-year-old Kurdish woman Mahsa Amnim was killed by the morality police for wearing hijab “improperly”. The news of her death sent shockwaves across the world. Many women and men have taken to streets to protest. This has resulted in the deaths of many young Iranians. Women all across the world have been seen burning their headscarves and chopping their hair in solidarity with the women in Iran.
