Massoumeh Malek Mohammadi: Awesome resistance against a cruel enemy
“Our salutes to the blood-drenched generation of June 20, who did not relent in their struggle against the mullahs’ regime, passing from one battlefield to the other, from one torture chamber to the next,” said Massoumeh Malek Mohammadi during her speech to the international virtual conference at Ashraf 3 marking the 40th anniversary of the beginning of the Iranian Resistance.
“They passed through the “residential unit“, “the grave”, “the coffin” and “the cage.” They passed through the death corridors and the hanging halls of the 1988 massacre, and the 14-year blockade and house-arrest in Ashraf and Liberty (in Iraq), but did not budge an iota on their ideals. And today, they are the focal point of hope for freedom of the people of Iran,” she added.

· Deputy Health Minister: There are no stable epidemic conditions in any of the provinces … We will face more severe crises in the cold season
· Loghman Hospital in Tehran: We are facing a new outbreak of the disease. We do our best. But the results are not so great, and we are witnessing loss of lives.
· Mrs. Maryam Rajavi hailed the protesting nurses who were attacked with batons and Tasers in Mashhad, as well as the general practitioners, nurses and all medical staff who are striving their best to save the lives of patients. She added: By plundering and squandering the public wealth and resources on nuclear and missile projects, along with terrorism and warmongering, the clerical regime has destroyed the country’s infrastructure. Despite the most skilled and selfless doctors and nurses, it has left our people defenseless in the face of the disease. The only way to end this situation is to overthrow the clerical regime and establish democracy and popular sovereignty.
The clerical regime has plundered our nation for 4 decades, wasting their wealth on nuclear and missile projects and on terrorism. Despite their selfless and proficient physicians and nurses, our people remain defenseless in the face of the pandemic. #Iranhttps://t.co/taJZyFhwh7

“Maryam Rajavi is a symbol of national solidarity of the Iranian people” : MEK Resistance Units
The Iranian Resistance Units, a network of activists of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) across Iran, have been organizing various activities that are louder calls for regime change. They celebrated the anniversary of July 3, 2003.
On June 17, 2003, the Iranian Resistance in France faced a dirty conspiracy and deal between the religious fascism ruling Iran and the French government.
During this conspiracy, French police brutally attacked the headquarters of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) in Auvers-sur-Oise, France and also the homes of members of the Iranian Resistance in Parisian suburbs and arrested the Resistance’s President-elect and hundreds of members and officials of the Iranian Resistance. During this infamous conspiracy, the headquarters of the NCRI in Auvers-sur-Oise was ransacked by French Police and lots of properties were damaged.
Ultimately, the French judiciary, preferring justice over politics, ordered the release of Mrs. Rajavi after 17 days of imprisonment.
The Resistance Units bravely took to graffiti in public places with the slogans: “July 3 is one of the most glorious moments in the history of the resistance of the Iranian people,” “If resisting against the mullahs is a crime, we are proud of it,” “Maryam Rajavi is a symbol of national solidarity of the Iranian people,” “Democracy and freedom with Maryam Rajavi” and “Dear Maryam, you are the hope of the young generation, you will rescue Iran” / “Down with Khamenei, Viva Rajavi”
They wrote:
Tehran— “July 3 is a reminder of big victory over conspiracy and appeasement”
Tehran— “If resisting against the mullahs is a crime, we are proud of it”
Tehran— “Maryam Rajavi is a symbol of national solidarity of the Iranian people”
