As US-Iran ceasefire deadline nears, Trump demands release of eight women who are allegedly to be executed

US President Donald Trump has asked Iranian leaders to release eight women reportedly facing the death sentence in Iran. He made the appeal in a Truth Social post, citing a message from American pro-Israel activist Eyal Yakoby. The women, including Bita Hemmati, Diana Taherabadi, and Mahboubeh Shabani, were arrested for participating in anti-regime protests and are accused of various crimes by the Islamic Republic.
