The minerals are smuggled to Rwanda and then exported, with traceability systems reportedly failing to detect the conflict sourcing.

Iran Executes Two More on Spy Charges as Judiciary Chief Vows No Leniency

Iran has executed two individuals, Yaqoub Karimpour and Nasser Bakarzadeh, on charges of spying for Israel. Karimpour, 41, a follower of the Yarsan religious minority, was arrested in June 2025 and denied access to a lawyer. Bakarzadeh was a Kurdish political prisoner arrested in December 2023. Iran's judiciary chief Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejei dismissed international pressure, vowing no leniency in carrying out death sentences. At least 26 prisoners were executed in Iranian prisons in April 2026, including 14 political prisoners and one woman.
