Glasgow councillors have expressed solidarity with women in Iran who are taking part in anti-government protests.
Mass protests have been held across the country since 22-year-old Mahsa Amini died in police custody last month. She had been detained by Iran’s ‘morality police’ for allegedly violating the strict hijab law.
Women are fighting for basic freedoms, including the ability to speak and dress as they choose. But the country’s security forces have been cracking down on protesters, with human rights groups reporting around 200 people have been killed and many more injured.
