Iran Marks Zahedan Massacre with More Protests, Day – 55

On the 40-day memorial of mass killing over 100 Baluch citizens in Zahedan, citizens from different walks of life honored victims in protests.

On Wednesday, November 9, 2022, citizens from different walks of life commemorated the Zahedan massacre martyrs across Iran. Forty days ago, the regime opened fire on worshippers at Makki Mosque, killing more than 100 Baluch citizens, including children.

Condemning the regime’s heinous crime on September 30, merchants and citizens went on strike in Zahedan, Khash, Tehran, Tabriz, Mashhad, Sanandaj, Kermanshah, Saqqez, Baneh, Bukan, and Rasht.

Furthermore, students paid homage to Zahedan’s bloody Friday martyrs at the universities of Pars Higher Education Institute of Art & Architecture, Science & Culture, Amirkabir, Islamic Azad-West Branch, Fire Arts, and Meli [Beheshti] in Tehran.

Meanwhile, students continued protests and commemorated Zahedan victims at Tabriz University-Medical Sciences Faculty, Karaj Kharazmi University, Shiraz Aali University-Law & Political Science Faculty, Bojnurd University-Medical Sciences Faculty, Isfahan University-Arts and Architecture Faculties, Najafabad University, and Kermanshah Razi University.

November 9 marked the 55th day of anti-regime protests in Iran. The demonstrations began following the heinous murder of Mahsa Amini, 22, in police custody. However, it immediately turned into a revolution against the entire theocratic regime.

According to the Iranian opposition Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK/PMOI), the protests have extended to 218 cities. The regime has killed more than 550 citizens, injured tens of thousands, and detained over 30,000. The MEK has published the names of 375 killed protesters.
