Iranian Officials Detain Women's Rights Activists Ahead of Amini's Death Anniversary Protests

A polytechnic school in Russia's Tatarstan is reportedly using manufacturing facilities to assemble Iranian attack drones, with underage students working as laborers under exploitative conditions. Students, some as young as 15, are allegedly forced to work long hours, often without breaks or meals, and face hostile conditions that affect their mental health. The school, Alabuga Polytechnic University, has blurred lines between education and the military, with students participating in "patriotic" activities and being exposed to government narratives. The revelations raise concerns about Russia's military cooperation with Iran and the potential escalation of tensions and civilian casualties in Ukraine.
