目前仅有伊朗和阿富汗会定期公开执行死刑,沙特阿拉伯似乎已停止这一做法。

Only Iran and Afghanistan routinely carry out sentences in public, with Saudi Arabia appearing to have ended practice If the US defence secretary, Pete Hegseth, goes ahead with plans to livestream the execution of a soldier radicalised to extremist Islam who killed 13 people at a military base in Texas, his country will join a motley assembly of lesser powers and rogue actors who have conducted public executions in recent years.

如果美国国防部长皮特·赫格塞特真的按计划直播对一名极端伊斯兰分子执行死刑的过程,那么美国也将加入近年来实施公开处决的那些实力较弱或行事乖张的国家行列。该名罪犯曾在德克萨斯州的一处军事基地杀害了13人。

Only two countries currently systematically carry out capital sentences in public: Iran and Afghanistan.

据国际特赦组织统计,2025年塔利班政权实施了6次公开处决,伊朗政权则实施了11次。

In 2025, the Taliban authorities carried out six such killings and the regime in Tehran 11, according to Amnesty International.
