Iran Protests Spreading After Death Of Mahsa Amini

 

VOA: Iran Protests Against Woman’s Death in Hijab Case Spread to 16 Provinces 

Washington — Iranians have intensified their protests against last week’s death of a young woman detained by police enforcing Iran’s strict hijab rules, spreading their demonstrations to more parts of the country and engaging in bolder acts of defiance toward their Islamist rulers. 

Citizen journalist videos posted to social media appeared to show Iran’s latest anti-government protests reaching at least 16 of its 31 provinces on Tuesday, a big jump from the handful of provinces seen in protest videos posted to social media in the previous four days. 

VOA cannot independently verify the circumstances of the protests because it is barred from reporting inside Iran.
