Today, Iran witnessed widespread protests from diverse groups expressing their frustration with economic hardship, social injustice, and political repression.<\/p>\n
In Tehran<\/strong>, families of death row prisoners gathered in front of the Majlis (Parliament) to protest against execution sentences. Chants of “Don\u2019t execute!” filled the air as demonstrators urged the authorities to halt the regime\u2019s growing use of capital punishment, which has intensified in recent years.<\/p>\n Simultaneously, disabled Iranians held rallies across multiple cities, including Tehran<\/strong> and Chabahar<\/strong>, demanding fair treatment and economic support. In Tehran, disabled protesters gathered first in front of the Majlis and then outside the Planning and Budget Organization, voicing their frustration over unmet promises and unpaid support. The protestors held signs reading, \u201cA decent livelihood is our absolute right\u201d and chanted, \u201cNo plan, no budget, just empty promises.\u201d They demanded back payments for care allowances, support benefits, and the implementation of financial assistance per the country\u2019s welfare laws. One protester summarized the plight of many: \u201cThe issue isn\u2019t our ability; it\u2019s the lack of justice.\u201d The disabled community, fighting for fundamental rights, emphasized their urgent need for social and economic support, which has largely been ignored by the authorities.<\/p>\n More photos of protest rally by families of death row prisoners in Tehran.#IranProtests<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/vdjO8QOt8K<\/a><\/p>\n — People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK) (@Mojahedineng) October 29, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
