Retirees protested the regime&#8217;s June 5 decision to increase pensions by 10 percent whereas living costs have multiplied, calling it plundering and cruel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: justify\">Retirees chanted slogans such as: \u201cDeath to Raisi,\u201d The government betrays, Majlis (parliament) supports it,\u201d \u201cWhile people are begging to make ends meet, Khamenei lives like a king,\u201d \u201cToday is a day of mourning, the retirees\u2019 salaries are under cloak (stolen by the mullahs) today,\u201d \u201cGuns, cannons and tanks, oppressor must go,\u201d \u201cWe will not rest until we obtain our rights,\u201d \u201cYou, the liar Raisi, what happened to your promises,\u201d \u201cDishonorable liar, what happened to your promises,\u201d \u201cDeath to the government that deceives its people,\u201d \u201cthe inflation is 100%, our salary 10%,\u201d \u201cWe shall fight, we shall die, but we don\u2019t accept humiliation,\u201d \u201cNeither poverty, nor unemployment, unity and vigilance,\u201d \u201cWe will not accept humiliation,\u201d \u201cOnly by taking it to the streets we can obtain our rights,\u201d \u201cNeither Gaza nor Lebanon, think about retirees,\u201d \u201cIf the government is not a thief, our problem will be resolved,\u201d \u201cThis minister is a disgrace,\u201d \u201cPromises were so nice, but all lies,\u201d\u00a0 \u201cOur tables are empty, enough of empty promises,\u201d \u201cIncompetent government!

People were not allowed to leave the Baharestan metro station leading to the regime\u2019s parliament. A number of demonstrators were arrested and taken to an unknown location.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: justify\">In many cities, demonstrators carried or spread empty tablecloths as a sign of looting of their livelihood by the regime. In Shiraz, retirees gathered outside the Friday prayer Imam\u2019s office and confronted the riot agents who attacked them. A number of demonstrators were arrested. The special unit and the State Security Force in Isfahan brutally beat the retirees, facing their resistance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;text-align: justify\">Mrs. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maryam-rajavi.com\/en\/biography\" rel=\"noopener\">Maryam Rajavi<\/a>, the President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, hailed the retirees who took to the streets across the country, saying that repressing and arresting would not stop protesters.
