In a new blog post at @voelkerrechtsblog.org, I discuss the implications of the ICJ's Advisory Opinion for corporate climate accountability.

With SR Iran and SR EJEs, I call on Iran to halt the execution of Behrouz Ehsani & Mehdi Hassani, whose death sentences were upheld by the Supreme Court, following trials reportedly marred by torture and forced confessions.

@UN_SPExperts are in contact with Iranian authorities on this matter.

Two political prisoners in Iran 🇮🇷, Behrouz Ehsani & Mehdi Hassani, were executed today. According to @amnesty.org, they were tried in a 5-minute trial. Stop executions, arbitrary detention, unfair trials and torture. Urgent action is needed. @un-spexperts.bsky.social
