"Protests and Progress: Reflecting on Mahsa Amini's Legacy in Iran and Beyond"
TL;DR
Protests erupted in multiple cities in Iran on the one-year anniversary of Mahsa Amini's death, a 22-year-old woman who died in the custody of Iran's morality police for allegedly not wearing her headscarf properly. Demonstrators chanted slogans for women's rights and against Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, while authorities deployed armed guards and chased protesters. Rallies were also held in other cities worldwide. Amini's father and uncle were reportedly detained by authorities, with claims of an "assassination attempt" being used to deny the reports.
