Her death became the spark for a fire that spread like a wildfire across Iran. In more than 200 cities, in all 31 provinces of the country, massive protests broke out against the government. Mahsa\u2019s death, the result of severe head injuries inflicted by the morality police, was the last drop that caused the barrel to overflow after decades of oppression.\u00a0In the past eight years, Iran has witnessed six major waves of protest, each more powerful and organized than the previous one. The uprisings between December 2017 and 2022 appeared, on the surface, to be about the lack of basic necessities. In reality, dissatisfaction with the ruling system of dictatorship and the desire for democratic change were the driving forces.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fr.de\/politik\/erlebt-der-iran-eine-zeitenwende-93936664.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong style=\"text-align: justify;\">UPDATE: 9:30 AM CEST<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">From Iran \/ 21,000 Arrests, The Regime Still Pursues the Atomic Bomb to Change the Balance in the Middle East<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-334429 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ilsussidiario.net-logo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"87\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ilsussidiario.net-logo.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ilsussidiario.net-logo-150x44.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Kamran Dalir, of the Iranian Resistance, describes the regime\u2019s repression: <em>\u201cSanctions are good, they strike at the economic interests of the Revolutionary Guards.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">More than 21,000 dissidents have been arrested, and 32 people executed just in the days between August 31 and September 3.

The collective resistance of the female political prisoners prevented the full execution of this order.

The piece came after regime president Masoud Pezeshkian expressed dissatisfaction with the size of these allocations. However, the report underscored a fundamental contradiction: the same budget bill that Pezeshkian criticized was signed by him and submitted to parliament for approval. This contradiction reflects a long-standing pattern within the regime: while officials publicly lament wasteful spending, they actively enable and institutionalize it. The 2025 budget, far from reflecting national priorities, once again channels enormous public resources into ideological networks, propaganda outlets, and military-linked organizations that serve to sustain authoritarian control rather than the public interest.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-start=\"609\" data-end=\"885\"><a href=\"https:\/\/irannewsupdate.com\/news\/economy\/iran-regimes-budget-mismanagement-billions-allocated-to-religious-and-propaganda-institutions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Khamenei Turns to Military for Food Security Amid Deepening Economic Crisis<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-318229 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Iran-food-prices-supermarket.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Iran-food-prices-supermarket.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Iran-food-prices-supermarket-150x94.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As Iran\u2019s political and economic crises intensify, the regime\u2019s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has desperately instructed the government of Masoud Pezeshkian to guarantee food security for the population. The order underscores not only the severity of the crisis but also the structural incapacity of the regime to manage resources. In response, Mohammad Reza Aref, regime\u2019s first vice president, turned to the military rather than pursuing structural reforms or confronting the entrenched economic mafias that dominate the country\u2019s wealth. Aref appealed to Etka Organization, the economic arm of Iran\u2019s armed forces, to participate in food supply and storage. This move effectively places responsibility for public sustenance in the hands of the military, equating food security with national defense \u2014 a sign of paralysis in governance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-start=\"609\" data-end=\"885\"><a href=\"https:\/\/irannewsupdate.com\/news\/society\/khamenei-turns-to-military-for-food-security-amid-deepening-economic-crisis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/iran-news-in-brief-news\/iran-news-in-brief-september-14-2025\/\"><strong>Also, read Iran News in Brief \u2013 September 14, 2025<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THIS PAGE WILL BE UPDATED WITH THE LATEST NEWS UPDATE: 9:30 PM CEST Turning Point in Iran On September 16, 2022, Mahsa Amini died.
