Chanting antigovernment slogans, thousands of people in Mashad (capital
of the northeastern Khorassan Province) staged a protest following a
soccer match last Friday.
Young people clashed with the suppressive forces after intelligence
agents and State Security Forces tried to crush the protests.
The demonstration went on well in to the night in Samen-ol A’emeh
soccer stadium and nearby streets and districts throughout the city.
Hundreds were wounded or arrested. Those detained were taken to unknown
locations and no news is available about their whereabouts. So
widespread were the arrests that a state-run news agency admitted the
arrest of 100 protesters.

Tens of thousands of workers staged strikes across Iran on Saturday to
protest the clerical regime’s suppressive and anti-labor laws as well
as the lack of the minimum means of subsistence.
At the time of spiraling inflation and skyrocketing prices, lack of
wage increases, non-payment of wages, insurance deductions, absence of
assistance, such as coupons, and no promotions have left millions of
workers extremely vulnerable in the face of inflation and high prices.

Iranian Resistance urges international community to condemn mullahs’ hideous crime in Mahabad, form an international delegation
Four days of protests, store and school closures in protest to the torture-murder of a young man
The Iranian Resistance urges the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights and Human Rights Commission as well as other international human rights agencies to condemn the hideous murder of a young man and the subsequent mass arrests in Mahabad (western Iran). It also calls on them to form a fact-finding delegation to investigate this horrific crime. The international community’s silence and inaction has emboldened the ruling mullahs to continue and step up their atrocities. Time has come for the United Nations Security Council to take up the mullahs’ horrific rights record. |

Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei appointed Brig. Gen. Ismail Ahmadi Moqaddam
as the commander of the State Security Forces, SSF. He was hitherto the
