Iran has executed three men in connection with the anti-government protests that erupted in the country last year, reported Reuters. The judiciary said the deceased—Majid Kazemi, Saleh Mirhashemi, and Saeed Yaghoubi—were accused of killing three members of Iran's security forces during the demonstrations on November 16. They were hanged to death in the central city of Isfahan on Friday.
