The Twitter account gives its support to the demonstrations against the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini, claiming that it was “the last straw”. Women in several parts of the country are shaving their heads and setting their hijabs on fire to clearly oppose the Iranian morality police. Amini died in a hospital in the capital Tehran after a stroke and several heart attacks, three days after she was stopped in the street. The reason why they stopped her is said to have been that she was wearing the hijab incorrectly, reports Iranian state media. The Twitter account @YourAnonOne posted a video on Tuesday night that appears to show protests, and contained a message to Iranian authorities. – The Iranian people are not alone. Anonymous is not going to keep the Iranian government alive on the internet as long as the government is dictatorial and the police murder.

The account also shares a link to the web browser Tor, which they write should automatically counter censorship from the state. – Dykk censored the people’s access to social media and other means of communication to prevent knowledge of Dykk’s criminal actions against them. – Now Anonymous is coming to close down the dive. Divers own people want to remove divers from power. The West owes hypocrisy Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi was accompanied by protesters when he appeared at the UN summit in New York on Wednesday, reports AFP. He blamed the West for being hypocritical in his criticism following the death, and pointed to the actions of Israel in Palestine and the way IS treats women from religious minorities. – As long as we have this double standard, where attention is only directed at one side of the case and is not equally distributed throughout, we will not have real justice. Mahsa Amini at the hospital in Tehran before she died. Activists say that Amini died as a result of a severe blow to the head. The Iranian authorities deny this, but promise that the death will be investigated. The police chief in Tehran, Hossein Rahimi, says Amini died of cardiac arrest, and calls the death “an unfortunate incident”. Nevertheless, he claims that the video from the police station, which shows Amini swearing before it is cut, does not show “any inappropriate behavior on the part of the police”. “Eight killed in demonstrations” It is illegal and dangerous to protest against the authoritarian regime in Iran. Nevertheless, Mahsa Amini’s death has sent thousands of people into the streets. Eight people are said to have died in connection with the protests, writes AFP on Wednesday evening. State media in Iran report that the police have used tear gas and arrested several people during the demonstrations, which they write have spread to 15 cities. According to AFP, the protests are the most serious seen in Iran since the uprising over high petrol prices in 2019.
