In a stark contrast to its ongoing involvement in Middle Eastern conflicts, the Iranian regime is intensifying its crackdown on domestic dissent, marking a distressing escalation in its campaign of suppression. Over the past month, the regime has executed over 100 individuals, signaling a worrying trend of increased political executions.
These actions appear designed to instill terror and discourage participation in the burgeoning resistance and organized protests within Iran. Yet, despite these efforts, the regime is facing robust opposition, particularly from the Resistance Units, a network of PMOI supporters active throughout the country.
Notably, in Tehran, Karaj, and Shiraz, the Resistance Units disseminated posters of Massoud Rajavi emblazoned with the message, “The uprising of the people will not be stopped. The rebels will be victorious.” Simultaneously, in Tehran, a photo of Maryam Rajavi carried the rallying cry, “We will stand with Maryam until the end.”
Mashhad witnessed a significant display of resistance, with the Resistance Units holding photos of Maryam Rajavi and placards advocating for democracy and freedom under her leadership. Their slogans included affirmations of Rajavi as a symbol of resistance against the mullahs and a commitment to democratic freedom.
The resistance’s scope extended to Sistan and Baluchestan province, showing solidarity with the heavily oppressed Baluch people. In Zahedan and Rask, the Resistance Units displayed placards condemning years of crimes by the regime and vowing to persevere until the end.
As the regime grapples with its dwindling power to suppress another wave of protests, it seeks to divert attention from its internal crises and the growing unrest in Iranian society by leveraging external conflicts, such as the war in Gaza.
The prevailing sentiment among these groups is clear: neither the regime’s external conflicts nor its internal crackdowns will prevent what they see as its inevitable downfall.
