Iran Judiciary Chief Warns Supporters of U.S.-Israeli Airstrikes May Face Severe Penalties

Iran's judiciary chief, Gholam Hosseini Mohseni Ejehei, warned on March 4, 2026, that individuals supporting the U.S.-Israeli airstrikes against Iran could be treated as enemies and face severe penalties, including the death penalty for cooperating with the enemy. He linked this stance to the government's response to January's nationwide protests, emphasizing that such cases are a priority and will be handled according to revolutionary and Islamic principles during wartime.
