A conservative legislator in Iran’s parliament revealed on Sunday that police have arrested 129 people so far during protests at Tehran’s Grand Bazaar and outside the country’s Parliament over the past week. Protests continued into Monday as the nation’s water supplies dried up.
Mohammad Javad Kolivand reportedly told the parliament’s news website that 129 people were detained during the spontaneous protests, where Iranians called for regime change over the country’s economic woes and the rial reaching a record low of 90,000 rials to the U.S. dollar.
Protesters chanted “Death to Palestine!”, “Death to Khamenei!”, and “We don’t want the dollar to be at 100,000 rials,” over the steep decline of Iran’s currency to a record low against the U.S. dollar. The protestors also expressed opposition to the Iranian regime’s adventurism in countries like Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya and its support for the Hamas terrorist organization.
Last week, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Iran’s judiciary head, Ayatollah Sadeq Amoli Larijani, warned the public that anyone who “disrupts” Iran’s “economic security” by protesting could be put to death.
