What this vote decides Written by AI from the official text — check the source

Parliament adopted a resolution on repression and executions of protesters, dissidents, political prisoners and religious minorities in Iran.

It also condemns US and Israeli air strikes on Iran, including a school bombing that killed at least 165 children.

Parliament calls for releasing political detainees, independent monitoring, and targeted sanctions instead of general economic ones.
