Iran Fire Festival protests – 11
NCRI – Fearing the Fire Festival on Tuesday, the clerical regime has resorted to collecting garbage bins and old vehicles across the city of Tehran to avoid them from being set on fire by Iranian youths.
Additionally, gas stations in sensitive areas, including Enqelab Square and all gasoline storages in various gasoline purchase centers were locked up by Tuesday noon in order to prevent youths from being able to set them alight in protest to the regime.
Tehran’s municipality has also started rounding up old vehicles in the capital since ten days ago.
However, in retaliation to these suppressive measures, the people of Tehran dump their trash outside their residence to help youth set them on fire tonight.
