- No source found states the exact figure of 11 executions on PMOI-related charges for the specific 'past few months' window ending October 2026; the claimed number is an approximation, not a figure published by any monitoring organisation.
- The figures found cover different windows and cannot be reconciled into a single precise count: Iran HRM documented nine PMOI-affiliation executions across 2026, whereas Hengaw reported 14 PMOI/MEK-related executions in April 2026 alone — so it is impossible to determine whether the real 'past few months' total is above or below 11.
- A Guardian article (25 April 2026) mentions 'a further 11 political prisoners remain on death row' in a PMOI/MEK-related context — this refers to prisoners awaiting execution, not to executions carried out, and could be a source of confusion with the claimed figure of 11.
- The most prominent sources on this issue (NCRI/ncr-iran.org and mojahedin.org) are affiliated with the PMOI/MEK itself, giving their execution counts an advocacy bias; the classification of those executed as 'PMOI political prisoners' is also contested (some are described as protesters or alleged spies for Israel).
- Some of the material located (e.g. NCRI reporting covering executions up to 13 October 2026) postdates the session of 7 October 2026 and could not have been known by the MEP at the time.
