On Friday, June 9, despite the presence of repressive forces and heightened security measures, the resilient people of Zahedan once again took to the streets following Friday prayers to vehemently protest against the executions, suppression, and plundering perpetrated by the IRGC and the mafia affiliated with Khamenei. Their resounding chants echoed: “Death to Khamenei,” “I will avenge my martyred brother’s blood,” “I will kill whoever killed my brother,” “Free political prisoners,” “So many years of crime, death to this theocracy,” and “Iranians: Unity, Revolution, Freedom.”

The demonstrators brandished placards conveying powerful messages: “Neither Monarchy nor Leadership, Democracy, and Equality,” “Down with the oppressor, be it the Shah or the Leader (Khamenei),” “Freedom will come with ‘We can and we must’,” and “Monarchy, Theocracy: A Century of Crime.”

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), extending her greetings to the brave Baluch compatriots, affirmed that Zahedan once again rose on another Friday, standing firm for revolution and freedom, embodying the unwavering determination of the Iranian people to overthrow the mullahs’ regime, rejecting all forms of dictatorship, and establishing a democratic republic.
