Citizens in several cities rallied against the government\u2019s failure to address their pressing demands.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In <strong>Tehran<\/strong>, retired teachers gathered in front of the parliament, demanding the implementation of proper pension reforms and the payment of overdue benefits. The teachers, many from the 2021 retirement cohort, carried placards and chanted slogans such as \u201cOur demand now is the implementation of the law\u201d and \u201cStop injustice in ranking and equalization.\u201d This marks the continuation of similar protests in recent weeks, with participants decrying inadequate responses to inflation and a lack of fair pensions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nurses in <strong>Shiraz, Fars Province<\/strong>, southern Iran, staged a protest outside the provincial governorate on the 16th consecutive day of their strike. Holding placards with slogans like \u201cWe fought COVID-19, but received no support,\u201d the healthcare workers demanded higher wages, better insurance coverage, and the resolution of outstanding pay disputes. The government\u2019s decision to reduce overtime rates from a promised 100,000 toman per hour to 65,000 toman has exacerbated discontent among nurses, many of whom face mounting arrears.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">More footage of the protest rally by retired teachers in Tehran.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/IranProtests?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#IranProtests<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/b7ZoYgEnHg\">pic.twitter.com\/b7ZoYgEnHg<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; People&#39;s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK) (@Mojahedineng) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Mojahedineng\/status\/1859171578191237599?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 20, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nurses in <strong>Ahvaz, Khuzestan Province<\/strong>, southwest Iran, also rallied outside the provincial governorate, echoing the demands of their colleagues in Shiraz.
