Anger is more widespread than in the past years. The people have suffered heavily under the mullahs\u2019 rule, especially because the regime and its Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) have control of over 70 percent of the country\u2019s economy, causing great suffering for millions of Iranians.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/irannewsupdate.com\/news\/insider\/day-26-irans-protests-continue-with-the-slogan-this-is-no-longer-a-protest-it-is-a-revolution\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\">IRGC Forces Kill Kurdish Protester Under Torture<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"prisoner-tortured\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-265168 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/prisoner-tortured-300x172.webp\" alt=\"prisoner-tortured\" width=\"300\" height=\"172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/prisoner-tortured-300x172.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/prisoner-tortured-150x86.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/prisoner-tortured-696x399.webp 696w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/prisoner-tortured.webp 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">A Kurdish protester from Saqqez, Ismail Dezwar, was arrested and severely tortured by the intelligence services in Iran.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">IRGC intelligence forces in plainclothes had taken Ismail Dezwar\u2019s body to Shafa Hospital in Saqqez inside an ambulance at 11 p.m. Sunday, October 9, 2022.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">One hospital staff mentioned that Ismail Dezwar died because of severe torture.
