Mrs. Maryam Rajavi<\/a> hailed the oil industry workers who went on strike in solidarity with the nationwide uprising and said that the only way to achieve the rights of workers and toilers is to overthrow the Velayat-e faqih system (absolute rule of clergy), which has brought nothing but oppression, discrimination, embezzlement, and corruption.<\/p>\n

The prisoners of Karaj Central Prison in several wards protested against taking four prisoners for execution and blocked the entrance to prevent the agents from coming in. They were chanting “Death to Khamenei.” The suppressive forces brutally attacked and opened fire on the prisoners leaving a large number of them wounded.<\/p>\n
