In order to prevent the spread of the uprising and the spread of the news of protests, the clerical dictatorship seriously disrupted the Internet today.

Suppressive forces arrested several students in some universities, including Tehran University, Khajeh Nasir, and Ferdowsi in Mashhad. In the universities of Tehran and Amir Kabir and the Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, agents of Basij and Herasat (university guard) attacked students with sticks and batons, and there were fierce clashes between the students and the suppressive agents, leaving several injured.

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) saluted the students who stood up despite the brutal attack of suppressive forces and massive arrests and said that the nationwide uprising of students along with other sections of the Iranian society demonstrates their determination to overthrow the criminal mullahs and establish democracy, justice and people’s sovereignty.

In his remarks on Saturday, Khamenei expressed desperation in the face of what many regards as Iran’s democratic revolution, urging authorities from both his “loyalist” and rival factions to join forces. The nationwide uprising continues for the third month in a row despite the authorities’ attempts to quash demonstrations. The continuation of these protests has exacerbated the regime’s infighting, exposing large cracks in the regime.

 

 

Protests in Iran have now spread to at least 231 cities, following the death of Mahsa Amini. According to sources from the Iranian opposition People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK), the regime’s forces have killed over 600 people and arrested over 30,000. The MEK has released the names of 446 protesters who were killed.

 

November 14 marked the 60th day of anti-regime protests in Iran, following the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman arrested by morality police in Tehran on September 13 for allegedly violating the country’s strict dress code for women. Protests erupted in response to the event, which has since spread to at least 220 cities. According to sources from the Iranian opposition People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK), the regime’s forces have killed over 550 people and arrested over 30,000. The MEK has released the names of 402 protesters who were killed.

 

 

 

The third month of the ongoing nationwide uprising in Iran is quickly approaching. The regime’s failure to put down what protesters call a “revolution,” despite increasing brutality on the part of security forces, attests to the fact that the uprising is well-organized and with a purpose. The low-key and methodical work of the Resistance Units affiliated with the main organized opposition, the People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK), can be attributed in large part to the uniformity of the slogans, the protesters’ creative tactics, and their impressive defiance, as well as the uprising’s staying power.

 

 

The students of the Faculty of Chemistry and Faculty of Management and Economics of the Sharif University of Technology, Allameh University, Faculty of Social Sciences of the University of Tehran, Noshirvani University of Babol, Rasht University, and the Urmia University of Technology staged sit-ins and demonstrations.

 

 

On Saturday, the nationwide uprising in Iran entered its 51st day after the regime’s oppressive security forces committed yet another massacre, this time in the city of Khash in southeast Iran’s Sistan & Baluchestan Province. The regime’s security forces carried out the killing of at least twenty locals in Khash. The people of this province and cities across the country are standing firm and relentlessly pursuing their escalating protests to bring the mullahs’ rule to an end once and for all.

 

 

On Wednesday, the 48th day of Iran’s nationwide uprising, which consists of continuous protests and demonstrations, began with merchants in the Kurdish cities of Sanandaj, Saqqez, Mahabad, Bukan, and Baneh closing shops and launching another round of their general strike. Locals in Saqqez are also protesting and chanting anti-regime slogans. This came after a tense night of protests and rallies in several districts of Tehran, as well as in the cities of Arak and Ilam, among others. Major clashes between protesters and the regime’s security forces continued into the night in Deholoran, Ilam Province.

 

 

The nationwide uprising entered its 45th day on Sunday, October 30. Despite the IRGC and Basij’s brutal attacks on students within university compounds and dormitories with tear gas and live ammunition, students in dozens of universities across the country staged demonstrations and sit-ins. While threatening yesterday, IRGC Commander Hossein Salami said, “Today is the end of the riots; they should not come to the streets any longer; why do you harass the people?”

 

On Thursday day, the 42nd day of the uprising, there were teacher strikes and student protests in Tehran and other cities. Student protesters from Sharif University in Tehran chanted “Freedom, freedom, freedom” and “Basij, this is the end of you” in front of the cafeteria. Students clashed with Basij agents, forcing them to flee.
