Today, Saturday, the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs summoned the British ambassador to Tehran, Simon Shercliffe, against the backdrop of sanctions imposed by London on officials in the Iranian judiciary.

According to a statement issued by the Iranian Foreign Ministry, Shercliffe was summoned against the backdrop of Britain's support for "terrorism and strikes" in Iran, and its imposition of "illegal sanctions" on Iranians.

The statement pointed out that the British sanctions related to the protests are "interference in the internal affairs of Iran."

He stated that the ministry informed the British ambassador that Iran reserves the right to respond in kind to the sanctions.

And the "Mizan" news agency (affiliated with the Iranian judiciary) reported - the day before yesterday, Thursday - that the authorities executed the young man, Mohsen Shakari (23 years), who was accused of blocking the road and attacking a security member (the Revolutionary Guard) with a machete in Tehran.

And the agency stated that the execution was carried out against the accused, Shkari, after he was convicted by the Revolutionary Court, according to the American Associated Press.

She explained that Shakari was arrested on September 25, and convicted on November 20 of the charge of "moharebeh", which is usually punishable by death.

Earlier, the Iranian judiciary sentenced to death 5 out of 16 people who are on trial for the killing of a member associated with the Revolutionary Guards, during the protests over the death of the young woman, Mahsa Amini.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry had also summoned the German ambassador to Tehran to the ministry's headquarters to protest Berlin's statements, which it saw as interference in Iran's internal affairs.

According to a statement - posted on the website of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs - that the German ambassador to Tehran, Hans Aido Motsel, was summoned to the ministry's headquarters, in response to statements made by the German authorities regarding internal developments in Iran, and the continuation of German positions in support of the protest and instability in the country.

Since last September 16, protests have continued across Iran following the death of Amini, 22, 3 days after she was arrested by the "morality police" concerned with monitoring women's dress code.

The incident sparked widespread public anger in the political and media circles in Iran, amid conflicting accounts of the causes of death.
