Iran's Morality Police Reinstate Hijab Enforcement Campaign Following Protests

Iranian authorities have launched a new campaign to enforce the Islamic headscarf for women, with morality police returning to the streets after protests last year. The protests, sparked by the death of a woman in custody, called for the overthrow of Iran's theocracy. While the protests have subsided, many women continue to defy the official dress code, especially in Tehran. The morality police will now notify and detain women not wearing the hijab in public. The battle over the hijab has become a rallying cry, with women playing a leading role in the protests against Iran's clerical rulers.
