66 Prisons, 143 Weeks: The Hunger Strike the Regime Can't Break

The regime in Tehran relies on fear. They use the gallows and the cranes to try and buy silence. But the resistance is not just surviving; it is organizing directly inside the prison walls.
As of October 2026, the "No to Execution Tuesdays" campaign has hit its 143rd consecutive week. Political prisoners across 66 different prisons are conducting coordinated hunger strikes every Tuesday to protest the state-sanctioned executions of dissidents.
The state is accelerating the violence, but the resistance remains active from Zahedan to Tehran. The international community might look away when it's politically convenient, but the Rats Movement stays watching. We stand with the political prisoners striking for freedom.
