RP• @lilyinapad WATCH THIS. These primitive monsters. Walking the streets looking for girls to kick and slap. Like stupid prehistoric apes. These mindless Orcs will be gone soon. Big props to the fearless girls that stand there and face them. These girls are my heart. I’m headed to sundance today and just reminding you to keep Iran in your thoughts. This is a mild example of the terror and oppression they face every day. ❤️🤍💚✊🏽#freeiran #irgcterrorists
RP• @ninaansary Deeply concerned for 20 year old Armita Abbasi arrested and imprisoned in October 2022 protesting for freedom in Iran. She has been subjected to horrific atrocities including rape and brutal torture. Her sham trial was held yesterday behind closed doors. Her life is in danger. #mahsaamini #armitaabbasi #iranprotests #iranrevolution #womanlifefreedom
RP• @ninaansary 16 year old Hasti Hossein Panahi has been in a coma since November 2022 after being brutally beaten with a baton by Islamic Republic security forces. Her family has been told there is no hope for recovery. Designate the IRGC as a terrorist organization. #mahsaamini #hastihosseinpanahi #iranprotests #iranrevolution #irgcterrorists #freeiran
RP• @centerforhumanrights “Why were you smiling when you shot me?” Ghazal Ranjkesh, a law student from Bandar Abbas, Iran, is among hundreds of people who’ve been shot in the eyes by Islamic Republic forces deployed to crush anti-state protests. “The shooter didn’t know I’m bulletproof,” Ghazal wrote in a defiant message on Instagram. “He didn’t know that my soul and body are more than that.” In a letter, more than a hundred ophthalmologists warned in November 2022 that Islamic Republic forces’ use of birdshots and projectile weapons against street protesters are causing “severe eye injuries” and “irreparable consequences,” including “the loss of one or both eyes.” According to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), to which Iran is a party, everyone has the right to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly. According to the UN Basic Principles on the Use of Force and Firearms by Law Enforcement Officials, law enforcement officers may use force only when strictly necessary and to the extent required to achieve a legitimate policing objective. Yet Ghazal, like countless other Iranians killed or maimed by state forces in recent months, was simply walking in the street. Her case is among hundreds of deliberate use of force cases against unarmed individuals that should be investigated by the UN Human Rights Council’s Iran-focused fact-finding mission, which was set up to compile evidence of human rights violations and atrocities committed by Islamic Republic forces since September, and to hold Iranian authorities accountable. #Iran #IranProtests #IranProtests2023 #HumanRights #UN #FreeSpeech #Revolution #OpIran #Khamenei#MahsaAmini #IranRevolution #WomensRights #Iranian #Tehran #Mahsa_Amini #WomenLifeFreedom #IranProtests2023 #StopExecutionsinIran #stopexecutioninIran #زن_زندگی_آزادی #زندان_اوین #مهسا_امینی #غزل_رنجکش
RP• @nicolenajafi Iranian-Americans demand Robert Malley’s immediate resignation. His failures as Special Envoy for Iran are shameful at best, nefarious at worst.
