Not true at all. Only Iran and Afganistan and a province I Indonesia require women to wear a hijab and none of them require a burka. And those countries don't impose the death penalty for not wearing it, although there are cases in afganistan where people have imposed that themselves despite it not being the "official" position of the taliban government.
In fact far more countries, ban the hijab outright, including some Muslim countries.
So saying its enforced by death penalty in most cases is an outright lie.
Like we can talk about the social and religious expectation to wear one and how that's bad, but lying to make the problem seem worse than it really is is not productive.
