Aftermath
At least in part as a response to the invasion, Iran systematically executed thousands of political prisoners across the country, mainly members of the Mujahadeen-e-Khalq (MEK) but also members of the Tudeh Party (Communist Party) and other opposition groups.
The estimates for number of executions vary from around 1,400 to 30,000.
