Auch am dritten Wochenende nach dem gewaltsamen Tod der iranischen Kurdin Mahsa Amin gingen die Proteste im Iran unvermindert weiter.

Dies schrieb mir gestern Nacht ein guter Bekannter aus dem Iran:

Hello, today's revolution was more glorious, people all participated, strikes increased and people became braver. More than 18 people were killed in Sanandaj. Nearly 8 people were injured in Javanrud. Be our voice. We do not have internet. We have no internet access for 4 days.

Inzwischen sprechen die Demonstranten immer öfter von Revolution und das gemeinsame Ziel ist klar: Es geht um nicht weniger als den Sturz des Regimes und das Ende der Islamischen Republik.

'Tode dem Diktator' skandierten gestern tausende auf den Straßen iTeherans und anderer Städte. Vielerorts fanden heftige Zusammenstöße mit Sicherheitskräften statt, bei denen es erneut zu Toten und Verletzten kam.

Demonstrators across Iran blocked roads, chanted against the government and clashed with security forces, as anti-government protests continued to escalate over three weeks since Tehran morality police killed Mahsa Amini.

In recent days, activists in Iran had called for largescale protests to be held on Saturday.

Throughout the day on Saturday, protests broke out in Tehran, Mashhad, Sanandaj, Karaj and Babol, among other locations, with demonstrators shouting "death to the dictator," "Ali will be overthrown," "women, life, freedom" and "mullahs get lost," among other slogans..

At Al-Zahra University in Tehran, students protested as Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi visited the campus telling Raisi to "get lost."

A university student told Reuters on Saturday, "They can kill us, arrest us, but we will not remain silent anymore. Our classmates are in jail. How can we remain silent?"

Videos showed on social medias showed protesters gathering in the streets and blocking roads in multiple cities.

Despite the crack down, multiple videos shared on social media showed security forces running as protesters chased them away.
