Why is Iran’s TikTok generation demanding ‘Women, Life, Freedom’? – BBC News
On September 13, 22 year old Mahsa Amini died after being detained by Iran’s morality police for allegedly violating strict laws requiring women to cover their hair with a headscarf, or hijab.
Outrage over her death sparked protests that are challenging the very existence of Iran’s Islamic leadership.
BBC Persian’s Jiyar Gol looks at what young people are demanding and why some are saying this could be a turning point in the fight for equality.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

were christians. There was an official church of persia. Google it on wikipedia and you ll find out a part of your history the muslims dont tell you. You became muslims by invasion by the arabs coming from the arabian peninsula. You were so christians that persians evangelized parts of china. Google the Chinese Christian stele. You were nestorian christians, Zoroastrians, and buddhists. Learn your history. see how the ossetians who speak an iranic language and they are christians. You know why? Because arabs did not arrived so far north to islamize them and the ossetians remained christians. You on the other hand submitted to islam which is imposed by invasion on you. How disgraceful is that? Let alone they made you darker with their arab mixing. The only way to become as you were is to denounce islam. Denounce your invaders.

So funny, in Iran people have enough of self-imposed oppression , in the UK, the people who run away from Islamic Paradises now fight for their rights to be oppressed and whoever says something against the oppression is called the Islamophobe.
We need to keep the west as far as we can from those people. They themselves don't what they want. Never happy.
I hope only the west won't be listening the moaning and will not do anything stupid like it was doing before, that is, trying to change the regime.

Muslims always support the most violent elements in their religious community – why? The Islamic Republic of Iran terrorizes its own people and rapes, tortures and murders teenage girls – why is the global muslim community not outraged and protesting against Iran?! Why does the global Muslim community not protest against China's genocide of the Uyghur muslim community?! Why do Muslims only emigrate to Christian Western Democracies if they hate our culture so much?! It's time to block the immigration of all muslims from extremist countries and deport those who are here illegally or when they break the law – full stop.
