In Tribute to the Martyrs of the January 2026 Uprising
Today and in these days, the people of Iran commemorate each martyr as their righteous anger, rising once again in renewed resistance. Every tear shed, every searing pain carried in the hearts of mothers and fathers whose children were slain in January, feeds a raging fire—one that will ultimately reduce this entire regime to ashes. What long, torturous hours and days families endure, searching for their children among black body bags, calling their names, not knowing whether they stand on the first day of their child’s martyrdom or the seventh. Truly, the martyrs of this month are the most alive among the living.
Names That Must Not Be Forgotten: Women Who Lost Their Lives in Iran’s January 2026 Uprising
The Iranian people’s nationwide uprising began on December 28, 2025, when Bazari merchants—long regarded as the backbone of Iran’s small-business economy—closed their shops in protest. Their action ignited a wave of unrest that rapidly spread across generations and regions, transforming economic grievance into nationwide resistance. As protests intensified, chants of “Death to the dictator” and “Freedom” echoed in more than 100 locations in Tehran and across 400 cities throughout the country. What began as economic discontent quickly evolved into open political defiance.

The nationwide uprising against the religious dictatorship in Iran continues to shake the foundations of the regime on Sunday, January 25, 2026.

While the regime attempts to conceal its crimes through blackmail and lies, international pressure is mounting, and even government insiders are admitting to an irreversible crisis of legitimacy and a generational shift that has placed the regime on the brink of collapse.

Price Shock and Political Order: Understanding Iran’s January Events
The events of January cannot be understood simply as “economic protests” or temporary unrest over livelihoods. What unfolded was the eruption of an accumulated crisis — one produced by deliberate economic decisions, the systematic silencing of critics, and the transfer of crisis costs onto society’s most vulnerable layers. The violence that followed was not incidental. It was integral to a broader project aimed at stabilizing an embattled order through economic shock and force. The Iran economic crisis and January protests revealed how price shocks and political order converged under mounting social pressure. In The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte, Karl Marx describes a moment when the army, acting in the name of order, dominates the streets — not to resolve social contradictions, but to preserve property relations and a political structure that has lost legitimacy.
Tehran Has Temporarily Crushed Street Protests, But the Economic Crisis Continues
The Iranian regime may have used force to break street protests, but it has no comparable solution for an economy trapped under runaway inflation and collapsing incomes. The January protests in Iran began after a sharp surge in foreign exchange rates, but they quickly escalated into open chants calling for the overthrow of the Iranian regime. Many Iranians now likely personally know people who were killed on January 8 and 9. Arrests and enforced disappearances, the exact scale of which remains unclear, have also plunged countless families into crisis and deepened fear and insecurity. According to individuals who have recently left Iran or managed to establish internet access via Starlink, businesses across the country have either shut down or are operating at minimal capacity, a situation resulting from currency turmoil and prolonged internet shutdowns.
Iranian Regime Reacts with Threats and Alarm After European Parliament Condemns Repression and Pushes IRGC Terror Listing
The Iranian regime’s leadership reacted with visible anger and anxiety after the European Parliament adopted a landmark resolution condemning the mass killing and repression of protesters in Iran and reiterating the call for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to be designated as a terrorist organization by the European Union. The response—from the Foreign Ministry to senior IRGC commanders and regime-appointed Friday prayer leaders—revealed not confidence, but fear: fear of sustained public resistance, fear of international isolation, and fear that the IRGC, the backbone of the regime’s survival, is increasingly viewed as a criminal entity rather than a legitimate military force.
