Iran: 3600 People Arrested for Posting the Real Figures of Fatalities of COVID-19<\/strong><\/h3>\n
The coronavirus outbreak in Iran has claimed the lives of nearly 40,000 people due to the regime\u2019s cover-up and inaction. Instead of helping people, the Iranian regime arrests those exposing the reality of the COVID-19 for what it calls \u201crumor\u2013mongering.\u201d
\nIn other countries, in addition to government transparency, individuals who alert others about a crisis such as the coronavirus outbreak are honored as heroes. In Iran, this is not the case.
\nBrig. Gen. Abolfazl Shekarchi, the spokesman for the regime\u2019s armed forces, told state-run TV on April 29: \u201cSome 3,600 people who had posted rumors in virtual space were arrested by the State Security Forces (SSF) and the Bassij. Our enemies continue their hostility, and they have agents inside the country who pursue their policy in the country.\u201d<\/div>\n

NCRI-US, May 8, 2020, Online Policy Briefing: The Imperative of Extending the UN’s Iran Arms Embargo<\/strong><\/h3>\n
WASHINGTON, DC \u2013 May 8, 2020 – In an online video policy briefing today, entitled \u201cThe Imperative of Extending the UN’s Iran Arms Embargo,\u201d Alireza Jafarzadeh, the deputy director of the U.S. Representative Office of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI-US), welcomed the bi-partisan letter to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo by an overwhelming majority of the U.S. House of Representatives. He said the letter serves as a clear indication that the threat of the Iranian regime is real, ongoing, and not a partisan issue, and that it exposes one of the major flaws in the JCPOA, allowing the expiration in October of the UN-sanctioned international arms embargo imposed on Tehran.
\nAlireza Jafarzadeh: The threat posed by the Iranian regime to Iran\u2019s people and the outside world will persist until there is a fundamental change in Iran. The COVID-19 crisis is just another proof that the religious dictatorship places its own survival above the best interests of Iranians and the region\u2019s stability. Its behavior is not going to change. There is only one solution and that is the change of the terrorist kleptocratic regime by the people of Iran. Now is the time for the international community to stand on the side of people and recognize their right to change the repressive regime and establish freedom and democracy in Iran.<\/div>\n
