Iran’s uprising is marking its 132nd day on Wednesday following the variety of anti-regime measures reported from cities and towns checkered across Iran specifically targeting regime Leader Ali Khamenei, (IRGC), paramilitary Basij, and plainclothes agents.
On Wednesday evening, brave MEK Resistance Units marched in Tehran and chanted slogans against the regime as protests continue across the country. In Tehran and the city of Bandar Abbas in southern Iran began chanting slogans targeting the crackdown apparatus.
Pensioners and retirees are among the worst-hit segments of Iran’s society. They depend on government stipends to make ends meet, but the regime has refused to increase their pensions in correspondence with the depreciation of the national currency.
This is the third such rally held recently as family members of various inmates traveled from across the country to hold a gathering on January 24 in the country’s capital where children were seen holding placards reading: “Don’t execute my dad!”
Iranian opposition coalition NCRI President-elect Maryam Rajavi has once again reiterated the determination of the Iranian people and their organized resistance to continue the struggle against the mullahs’ rule and bring about democracy throughout Iran.
The government has long provided many hollow promises of increasing pensions. It was also supposed to settle unpaid pensions remaining from previous years.

Retirees and pensioners of the regime’s Social Security Organization gathered in Ahvaz, the capital of Khuzestan Province, from four different cities—Shush, Haft Tappeh, Karkheh, and Hor protesting low pensions and poor economic conditions.
Pensioners and retirees are among the worst-hit segments of Iran’s society. They depend on government stipends to make ends meet, but the regime has refused to increase their pensions in correspondence with growing inflation and the depreciation of the national currency.
The government has long provided many hollow promises of increasing pensions. It was also supposed to settle unpaid pensions remaining from previous years. So far, it has yet to deliver on both demands.
Interestingly, the regime’s own media reported that The Social Security Investment Company (SHASTA), the financial institution that is supposed to fund retirees, has seen a significant increase in its profits in the past years. However, these profits have yet to materialize in the lives of pensioners and retirees.

This is the third such rally held recently as family members of various inmates traveled from across the country to hold a gathering on January 16 and January 14 in the country’s capital where children were seen holding placards reading: “Don’t execute my dad!”
Iranian opposition coalition NCRI President-elect Maryam Rajavi has once again reiterated the determination of the Iranian people and their organized resistance to continue the struggle against the mullahs’ theocratic rule and bring about freedom and democracy throughout Iran.
“Time for western governments to recognize the Iranian people’s struggle for regime change,” the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) President-elect said, emphasizing the necessity for the West to blacklist the regime’s IRGC as a terrorist organization.
The protests in Iran began following the death of Mahsa Amini. Mahsa (Zhina) Amini, a 22-year-old woman from the city of Saqqez in Kurdistan Province, western Iran, who traveled to Tehran with her family, was arrested on Tuesday, September 13, at the entry of Haqqani Highway by the regime’s so-called “Guidance Patrol” and transferred to the “Moral Security” agency.
She was brutally beaten by the morality police and died of her wounds in a Tehran hospital on September 16. The event triggered protests that quickly spread across Iran and rekindled the people’s desire to overthrow the regime.
