Massoud-Rajavi, the leader of the Iranian Opposition, was released from the Shah’s notorious SAVAK prison on January 20, 1979, leading MEK’s movement that is now the main opposition to the ruling religious fascism.

Resistance Units of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (PMOI/MEK) marked Jan 20^th, the anniversary of the Iranian resistance leader’s release from the Shah’s prison in 1979.

MEK Iran supporters posted posters and banners of Massoud Rajavi across the country. The posters and banners read: “The world must know that Massoud Rajavi is our leader. “Mullahs! Your days are numbered, and the overthrow process has been expedited. “Happy Jan 20, the anniversary of Iran’s hope, Massoud Rajavi. “In the name of the Martyrs…we name this year the Year of Overthrow.”

In another event, MEK Iran reported that homeowners from the town of Zaytun protested the orders issued by authorities to destroy their homes, which they have owned for 34 years.

Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Iranian Regime, personally attended in the Friday sermon last week. His attendance and remarks indicated the fact that the recent protests by the college students and people of Iran have targeted the heart of the regime when the protesters chanted: “So many years of crimes, death to the Supreme Leader”. Contrary to the earsplitting propaganda, Khamenei had nothing important to say. Repeating the usual lies, he tried to show that his establishment is still on its feet and breathing.

The People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK Iran) released the names of twenty more martyrs of the November uprising in Iran. Names of 724 killed in the recent protests have been identified by the MEK Iran so far.

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) has called on the United Nations to urgently send an international fact-finding mission to Iranian prisons to meet with the detainees.

Based on the MEK Iran reports the highlight of the uprising is as follows:

Number of uprising cities: 191

Number of martyrs: At least 1500

Number of injured: More than 4,000

Number of detainees: More than 12,000

Flood in three Southern Provinces

Sistan and Baluchestan, Hormozagan and Kerman provinces have been struggling with a devastating flood in the past eight days. In Sistan and baluchestan the damage to the road is such that many people are trapped in their villages.

The Iranian regime has taken no measures to protect the people of the region. People are relying on their own efforts to deal with the damages.

One of the residents said: “Yesterday, the flood took away all our belongings. Our sheep died. We have nothing left,” one of the children of the region said. “The Red Crescent doesn’t even answer the phone.”

MEK Iran reported that: “Conditions in the flood-hit areas are described as “devastated” and at least 20,000 homes have suffered 20 to 100 percent damage. 250,000 villagers around the cities of Chabahar, Konarak, Sarbaz, Qasr-e Qand, Dolgan, Nikshahr and Fanujz are in desperate need of aid as a result of the massive floods.”
