The 213th day of protests was marked on Sunday, with locals and parents in the city of Shahin Shahr in Isfahan Province taking to the streets to protest against the recent wave of poisonings and chemical gas attacks against several schools in the city. Numerous other cities are also reporting renewed chemical gas attacks by regime operatives targeting many schools. The protests have expanded to at least 282 cities, with over 750 people killed and more than 30,000 arrested by the regime’s forces, according to sources of Iranian opposition People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK)

 

Members of MEK Resistance Units inside Iran began marching in the streets of four different areas of Tehran and the cities of Shiraz, Bandar Abbas, Hamadan, and Chalus to protest and chant anti-regime slogans against the ruling theocracy. Regime operatives launched a chemical gas attack targeting the all-girls Setayesh High School in Tehran’s Persian Gulf district on Sunday morning. Several students are in dire condition, with school officials keeping the kids inside, according to reports. Similar gas attacks and poisonings are being reported in other cities.

 

 

Iranian opposition President-elect Maryam Rajavi of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) condemned the regime’s ongoing chemical gas attacks targeting schools across the country. “The continued poisoning of female students in Tehran, Karaj, Islamshahr, Baharestan, Shiraz, Ardabil, Urmia, Qazvin, Babolsar, and other cities is a heinous and systematic crime carried out on Khamenei’s order to prevent the outbreak of another uprising,” Rajavi said.

She called on the international community to take urgent action to end this humanitarian tragedy and urged the International Fact-Finding Mission to conduct a comprehensive and independent investigation.

 

 

Retirees and pensioners, along with workers of the Haft Tappeh Sugarcane Company, are also protesting their poor living conditions due to the regime’s destructive policies. This gathering was held in Shush, southwest Iran, on Sunday. Similar rallies were held in the cities of Ahvaz, Shushtar, Isfahan, Kermanshah, and Babol.

Meanwhile, nurses and medical staff from across the city of Qom in central Iran rallied outside the Qom University of Medical Sciences on Sunday, protesting their economic woes and demanding answers from regime officials. Students of Social Sciences at the University of Tehran also began protesting the regime’s increasingly oppressive hijab regulations on Sunday, with similar protest rallies reported in other cities.

 

 

The protests in Iran continue to grow in strength, with the regime’s response becoming increasingly violent and oppressive. The international community must take action to end the humanitarian tragedy unfolding in Iran and hold the regime accountable for its crimes against the Iranian people.
