This is what true courage looks like. An Iranian woman is harassed by a mullah for refusing to wear the misogynistic compulsory hijab so she pulls off his turban and uses it to cover her hair in an act of defiance. Iranian women are unstoppable—the free world needs to back them.
It is an absolute mystery to me how the EU Commission can show #EU solidarity with Iran. What a miserable hashtag, what a mockery of the brave fighters for human rights in Iran. I expect an explanation for this.
Meine Gedenken sind bei den hingerichteten Freiheitskämpfer*innen im Iran und all meinen Freund*innen, die zu Opfern des iranischen Regimes in Syrien gefallen sind.
Meine Solidarität gilt ihren Angehörigen und nicht dem Täter. #Raisi
First, Niloufar Aghaei was blinded as punishment for her protest against the killing of Mahsa Jina Amini. Now, her Instagram account has been shut down because she persistently published videos and spoke out. As a midwife nurse, she confronts the Islamic regime, declaring, ‘You may have taken my eye, but every day, I help bring new life into this world.’ It’s evident that to this anti-woman regime, the mere existence of women — their hair, their words, and even their simple Instagram pages — represents the greatest threat. #WomanLifeFreedom
Discussing the humanitarian situation in Gaza with Amir-Abdollahian? The mullah regime in #Iran is part of the problem. If you haven't realized it by now, you likely never will.

Met with Iranian Foreign Minister @amirabdolahian at the @UNOCHA office in Geneva today on the devastating situation in #Gaza.
The delivery and distribution of humanitarian aid into Gaza, including fuel, medicines and supplies to run hospitals, is critical.
German MP @n_roettgen: “The regime in Iran has the same determination to destroy Israel as Hamas. To this end, the mullahs' regime is equipping Hamas and Hezbollah with weapons. Without Iran there is no Hamas. Without Iran, there would be no Hezbollah.”
More security patrols at Iranian universities are targeting students for "mixed-gender sitting," "un-Islamic or improper clothing such as short pants and open-front coats, as well as piercings."

Jetzt da Hamas und Hisbollah, ausgestattet durch den Iran, Israel bombardieren, muss man daran erinnern: Das wichtigste Propagandazentrum der Mullahs steht in Hamburg. Ein Verbot gibt es immer noch nicht - obwohl auf Fachebene längst abgesegnet. Was fehlt, ist politischer Wille.

The West may think providing carrots—$6 billion—to Khamenei’s regime will lead to de-escalation. But it’s having the opposite effect. It’s resulted in an overinflated sense of confidence in Tehran, which will increase the regime’s recklessness & strategic errors. #IRGCterrorists
16 year old Nika Shakarami went missing in Iran during protests on September 20, 2022.
Her family were notified of her death 10 days later, just 2 days before what would’ve been her 17th bday.
She died from blunt force trauma by Islamic Republic security forces.
There’s been multiple reports with video footage of Islamic Republic of Iran officials and journalists—part of Ebrahim Raisi’s delegation at #UNGA —harassing and threatening Iranian-Americans in New York City. This needs to be reported to the authorities immediately. #UNGA78
The Taliban will use security forces to BAN women from visiting Afghanistan’s national park.
They have already banned girls from school/university, workings, travelling alone & forced mandatory burqa. Afghanistan has become a real prison for its women.
