Iran’s nationwide uprising is marking a major milestone of 60 days on Monday, following a day of protests by university students in many colleges across the country. These protests erupted following the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman arrested by morality police in Tehran on September 13 for allegedly violating the country’s strict dress code for women, and they have since then spread to at least 218 cities.

As the Iranian uprising enters its eighth week, not only the regime’s security forces but also their agents and operatives in other countries, are becoming more brutal toward protesters. According to social media reports, the principal of the Ermineh Mosallanejad Technical Vocational School for Girls in Shahr-e Rey summoned all students to sign a written pledge not to protest.

Protesting her arrest, Amini was severely beaten by the security forces in a van and was taken to the capital’s Kasra Hospital due to the severity of her injuries. After initial examinations, doctors declared that Amini had suffered a stroke and was brain dead at the same time. Amini died on Friday, September 16.
