Activists Race to Save Masoud Babaei from Dawn Execution in IranJanuary 31, 2026 4:12 AM Full SummaryIranian activists are urgently sharing claims that Shirvan cafe owner Masoud Babaei, arrested January 8 amid protests, was tortured into confessing and now risks execution early Friday. Human rights group Hengaw confirmed his detention in a sweep targeting Kurds, while posts circulate his photo stamped 'SENTENCED TO DEATH' and call for amplification with hashtags like #مسعود_بابایی. This push highlights Iran's crackdown, with over 100 executions since early January on protest-related charges, as online voices battle state silence and past campaigns have occasionally stopped such fates. Key TakeawayA desperate message from inside an Iranian prison warns that Masoud Babaei could face hanging at dawn on January 31. Activists are flooding posts with his name, hoping global attention might halt the gallows. Context & EntitiesTopics

Senate Speaker Amason Kingi warned on November 9 of impending hardships from asset sales and tax hikes, as social media reflects public concerns over economic sovereignty and national assets. Key TakeawayIn a bold stand against President Ruto's ambitious economic overhaul, opposition leader Kalonzo Musyoka declares war on the privatization of Kenya's lucrative pipeline, vowing to undo the deal and reclaim national wealth.

Yemen Parliament Demands Halt to STC Advances in Eastern ProvincesDecember 11, 2025 1:03 AM Full SummaryThe House of Representatives issued a statement on Wednesday calling for an immediate stop to Southern Transitional Council troop deployments in Hadramout, Shabwa, and Mahra. Backed by the UAE, STC forces have clashed with local tribes to secure these areas, which the parliament views as a violation of national unity and the Riyadh Agreement for power-sharing. Southern separatists dismissed the parliament as tied to the Islah party and pushed back with sharp memes and accusations of ignoring Houthi threats. As Saudi mediation efforts continue, the dispute underscores Yemen's deep east-west divides. Key TakeawayYemen's parliament drew a firm line against southern forces seizing control of key oil sites and territories in the east. Lawmakers warned these steps risk fracturing the nation further amid its long civil war. Context & EntitiesTopics

Leaders like Oburu and Governor Simba Arati back the coalition, citing by-election successes, while the feud reveals growing tensions as ODM seeks unity ahead of 2027. Key TakeawayKasmuel McOure stood up for ODM's chosen path, calling out Edwin Sifuna's opposition chants as a betrayal during a tough leadership shift. Context & EntitiesTopics
