MEK Resistance Units post posters of Massoud Rajavi and Maryam Rajavi in Iran

Resistance units of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK Iran) across Iran have been increasing their anti-regime activities over the past week by installing posters of Massoud Rajavi, the Iranian Resistance leader, and Maryam Rajavi, the President of the Iranian opposition coalition National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), across the country.

They’ve also been destroying posters of Qassem Soleimani, the now-dead Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) Quds Force Commander, in order to show their utter hatred of the mullahs’ regime and its terrorist in chief. They are refusing to allow the regime to promote the image of a man whose hands are drenched in the blood of thousands of Iranians, Iraqis, Syrians, and others.

Resistance units putting up posters of the Rajavis in Tehran, Shahroud, and Ahvaz, chanted:

• “Down with oppressors, be it the shah or [Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei]”
• “Hail to the [Iranian Resistance]”
• “Down with Khamenei, Hail to Rajavi”

In Tehran, specifically, resistance units putting up posted of the Rajavis chanted, “The fate of the Iranian people will be defined by the Iranian people themselves on the ground. The Iranian people and Resistance have vowed to overthrow this regime”.

Elsewhere in Tehran, resistance units graffitied walls with the slogans:

• “Down with Khamenei, Hail to Rajavi
• “Down with the murderous Khamenei”
• “Down with Khamenei the traitor”
• “Basij & IRGC members should know they’re ISIS themselves.”

In Ahvaz, Behbahan, Golestan, Kamiaran, Karaj, Ilam, Iranshahr, Isfahan, Rasht, Shahre Kord, Shiraz, Tabriz, and Tehran, resistance units burned the regime’s posters of Soleimani, while in Behbahan, Karaj, Iranshahr, Shahre Kord, Tabriz, and Tehran, they also burned pictures of Iraqi militia leader Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, who was killed in the same US drone strike as Soleimani.

In Karaj, rebellious youth set fire to tires to block roads and prevent the regime’s security forces from entering certain areas, while in Borazjan, they installed a poster of Massoud Rajavi with the slogan “The MEK Iran are specifically seeking to establish the rule of the people based on the ballot box”.

At this point, it’s important to remember that any support for the MEK Iran in Iran could carry the death sentence. In June 2014, according to Amnesty International, MEK Iran supporter Gholamreza Khosravi Savadjani was executed for sending a small amount of money to the MEK’s satellite TV network, Sima-ye Azadi (Voice of Freedom). Savadjani “was arrested in 2008 in Rafsanjan, Kerman Province.
