People in the city of Nowshahr in Mazandaran Province of northern Iran held a ceremony marking the 40th-day Hananeh Kia, a local protester, was murdered by the regime’s security forces. The ceremony evolved into an anti-regime rally as the participants chanted “Mullahs must get!” and “This is the year Seyed Ali (Khamenei) is overthrown!”
Starting on Monday morning, students in numerous universities and high schools checked across the country relentlessly pursued their protests against the regime’s escalating crackdown through their official security forces and plainclothes agents.
There were many reports indicating the regime has dispatched its Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) members in plain clothes to quell any and all anti-regime protests, only to see the Iranian people standing their ground and continuing their rallies.
Protests in Iran have to this day, expanded to at least 213 cities. Over 480 people have been killed, and more than 25,000 are arrested by the regime’s forces, according to sources of the Iranian opposition People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK). The names of 324 killed protesters have been published by the PMOI/MEK.
People in the cities of Tehran, Tabriz, Arak, and others were protesting well into the night and targeting regime-associated buildings with Molotov cocktails. Those chanting slogans were directly targeting the regime’s senior ranks and calling for regime change in Iran by the people of Iran.
All the while, strong criticism is being directed at both the IRGC and the paramilitary Basij Force. “Death to the dictator!” and “Death to Khamenei!” referring to regime Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, and “Death to the oppressor! Be it the Shah or [Khamenei]!” are being heard in more cities throughout Iran.
Iranian opposition the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) President-elect Maryam Rajavi praised the students of Iran’s universities and high schools in their continuing rallies and gatherings against the mullahs’ regime.
“Despite crackdown and threats, universities and high school students in Tehran, Sanandaj, Mashhad, Qazvin, Yazd, Isfahan, Tabriz and elsewhere came to the scene with chants of ‘Death to the dictator,’ ‘Freedom,’ and ‘Imprisoned students must be freed.’ This hurricane will continue until victory,” she said.
Freedom-loving Iranians and PMOI/MEK supporters have been holding gatherings in Europe, the US, and Canada in support of their compatriots protesting the mullahs’ dictatorship. These gatherings have been seen in Geneva, Vancouver, Washington, Amsterdam, Rome, Vienna, Stockholm, Frankfurt, Ottawa, and Nuremberg.
The protests in Iran began following the death of Mahsa Amini. Mahsa (Zhina) Amini, a 22-year-old woman from the city of Saqqez in Kurdistan Province, western Iran, who traveled to Tehran with her family, was arrested on Tuesday, September 13, at the entry of Haqqani Highway by the regime’s so-called “Guidance Patrol” and transferred to the “Moral Security” agency.
She was brutally beaten by the morality police and died of her wounds in a Tehran hospital on September 16. The event triggered protests that quickly spread across Iran and rekindled the people’s desire to overthrow the regime.
