Demonstrations in Iran against Raisi and Rouhani, the demonstrators chant "Death to the dictator" (use according to Article 27A of the Copyright Law)

Iran continues to burn even today (Saturday), following the hijab riots, which broke out following a young woman, Mehsa Amini, who was arrested by the morality police because she did not wear the head covering, and died in custody.

In the documents from the demonstrations that were distributed on social networks, you can see dozens of protesters chanting "death to the dictator", and in another video, the police are seen arresting one of the demonstrators when she is not wearing a hijab.

Yesterday, Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi said that the protesters in the riots that broke out throughout the country must be "confronted with determination".

The authorities have been working for several days to suppress the riots of the demonstrators.

Meanwhile, according to data from human rights organizations, 36 protesters were killed in the protests.

"Those who oppose security and peace in the country must be confronted decisively," Raisi said.

He made the remarks in a condolence call to the family of a security agent who was stabbed to death, apparently by protesters.

Following the demonstrations, Iran's police chief, Hossein Ashtari, warned that "those who are involved in sabotage and creating insecurity according to instructions from outside the country should know that they will be dealt with severely."

He also said that "the security of the people is our red line".

The young woman, whose death sparked the riots in Iran, was arrested by the moral police in Iran about a week and a half ago, for wearing a hijab "sloppy".

She collapsed at the police station, went upstairs and died three days later in the hospital.

Authorities claimed she had a heart attack, but according to her family, there were no medical problems.

Also, Amini's father claimed that she suffered from injuries while she was in custody, and said that he considers the police responsible for her death.
