19-year-old champion wrestler Saleh Mohammadi executed by Iran in a public hanging. Mohammadi, Mehdi Ghasemi, and Saeed Davoudi were executed as part of Iran's brutal crackdown on protests. According to human rights groups, Mohammadi was tortured to confess "to the capital crime of waging war against God." "His execution was a blatant political murder, part of the Islamic Republic’s pattern of targeting athletes to crush dissent and terrorize society," said human rights activist Nima Far. The protesters were accused by the regime of killing two police officers with knives and swords. They "fast-tracked proceedings that bore no resemblance to a meaningful trial," Amnesty International said. RIP.

England is now the only country in Europe that doesn't financially support its farmers to produce food. Surely Trump's conflict in the Middle East and Putin's invasion of Ukraine show how utterly vital our food security is? The Government needs to wake up and back our farmers.
