This stance was prominently displayed through a series of placards held following the Friday prayers on March 29, sending a strong message not only to the authorities in Iran but also to the international community observing the unfolding events.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The placards, emblematic of the protestors\u2019 demands and aspirations, bore messages of defiance and hope. One such message read, \u201cWe are in war with the shah and mullahs,\u201d symbolizing a historical continuity of resistance against authoritarian rule in Iran, from the Shah\u2019s era to the current rule of the mullahs. Another placard declared, \u201cThe spring of freedom with the liberation army,\u201d celebrating Nowruz with a commitment to bringing freedom to Iran through nationwide uprisings and organized resistance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/news\/pmoi-resistance-units-in-zahedan-reiterate-calls-for-freedom-and-democracy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Senior Iranian Official Reveals The Truth of The Regime\u2019s Elections<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-317862 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Iran-elections-empty-polling-stations.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Iran-elections-empty-polling-stations.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Iran-elections-empty-polling-stations-150x85.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The effects of the mass boycott of the Iranian regime\u2019s recent elections are becoming increasingly evident.

The report, based on satellite imagery analysis, reveals that Iran has completed the construction of tunnels for a deeply buried nuclear facility near Natanz. This underground complex, potentially invulnerable to airstrikes, could house enrichment halls for producing weapons-grade uranium.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-sourcepos=\"5:1-5:389\">Iran claims this new site is simply a replacement for a similar above-ground facility destroyed by Israel in 2020. However, experts believe the new location could be up to 150 meters deep, exceeding the depth of Iran\u2019s existing Fordow enrichment plant. This raises concerns that Iran might be building a clandestine enrichment facility, further blurring the lines of its nuclear ambitions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a

International Atomic Energy Agency has once again criticized the Iranian regime\u2019s further restriction of IAEA inspectors\u2019 access to its nuclear activities, saying that the nuclear deal known as the JCPOA has practically been abandoned and Iran\u2019s nuclear capabilities are no longer the same as they were ten years ago.\u00a0On March 30, Rafael Grossi told PBS that despite a recent report by the agency indicating a reduction in Iran\u2019s stockpile of highly enriched uranium, the overall trend is an increase in nuclear materials with very high enrichment levels.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In February, Reuters reported that the IAEA had informed its members that Iran\u2019s storage of 60% enriched uranium continues to grow, but its pace has slowed in
