Iran executes Baloch militant for killing Revolutionary Guards

Iran on Saturday hanged an ethnic Baloch militant for killing Revolutionary Guard members, a day after the United Nations urged Iranian authorities to spare his life. The judiciary's official website reported that Javid Dehghan, a leader of Sunni militant group Jaish al-Adl was hanged for killing two Guards five years ago. UN condemned Iran's "series of executions since mid-December".
