Videos captured from various locations in Iran showed that as the most recent wave of public protests entered its fourth week, a lot of cities joined the anti-regime demonstrations and students continued to roam around inside and outside of their colleges.
The Iranian TV network Khabar was hacked for a few seconds during the protest movements, during which the leader’s image was broadcast alongside the message “The blood of our youth is shed by your hand,” along with a call to join the rallies.
On Saturday, market vendors and storeowners in several Iranian Kurdish cities went on strike in solidarity of the revolt of the Iranian people.
Tehran, Rasht, Karaj, Mashhad, Abadan, Shahin Shahr, and Arak all had demonstrations at the same time. Students from universities also protested in the Iranian capital.
The films claim that retailers in the cities of Sanandaj, Mariwan, Bukan, and Saqqaz shut down their establishments.
The current general strike is now in its fourth week, and Iranian Kurdistan’s two largest cities—Sanandaj, the capital, and Saqqaz.
Two individuals have reportedly been killed as a result of security forces firing on protesters in the cities of Sanandaj and Saqqaz, according to Iranian reports.
In Shiraz, the Iranian province of Fars’s capital, protests broke out, and demonstrators set major thoroughfares on fire.
Activists reported that female university students in Tehran screamed “Get out of our face” during Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi’s Saturday visit to their campus and his criticism of the protests of enraged demonstrators over the murder of a young woman while in police custody.
In a poem he read aloud at Tehran’s Al-Zahra University, Raisi referred to the Mahsa Amini protesters as “fly.”
Raisi urged college students and faculty to resist the protestors, whom he referred to as Iran’s enemies, and stop them from achieving their wicked objectives within colleges.
Students were heard yelling “Get out of our face, my president” and “Get out of our face, my mullahs” while the president was visiting their university campus, according to a video posted by the “Taseer 1500” account on Twitter.
Along with the strikes, videos from Sanandaj have been broadcast since Saturday morning showing locals supporting the protests by honking their cars in the streets.
Saqez school children also yelled phrases like “Death to the tyrant” and “Women, life, freedom” while in the area of the schools.
As part of the Iranian people’s rebellion and in opposition to the heightened level of security in institutions, students at numerous Iranian universities have been on strike since last week. However, the strikes have also affected unions and other classes.
Prior to it, numerous well-known political, cultural, and academic individuals from abroad as well as 400 Iranian and foreign writers and translators requested various organisations and unions to go on strike so that the protest movement would be successful in its goals.
In response to Raisi’s visit to their institution, Iranian ladies defy him. Get away from us, please
