Additionally, pensioners of the Social Security Organization gathered in <strong>Ahvaz, Khuzestan Province (southwestern Iran),<\/strong> and <strong>Shush, Khuzestan Province<\/strong>, calling for fair compensation and government support.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">PMOI Resistance Units in Zahedan reject all forms of dictatorship in a new wave of anti-regime activities <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Cy88CWG7To\">https:\/\/t.co\/Cy88CWG7To<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; People&#39;s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK) (@Mojahedineng) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Mojahedineng\/status\/1888526095940530675?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 9, 2025<\/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;\">On February 8, in <strong>Chabahar, Sistan and Baluchestan Province (southeastern Iran)<\/strong>, security forces launched an assault in the Muradabad district, demolishing the walls of several houses under construction.
