Anti-regime rallies have been flaring up in Tehran and other Iranian cities. Security forces met these demonstrations with excessive force, arresting hundreds of protesters, most prominent of whom was the daughter of ex-president Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani.
Faezeh Hashemi was arrested on the 11th night of protests that have swept Iran nationwide in the aftermath of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old Kurdish woman, dying under mysterious circumstances while in police custody.
