While the internet in parts of western Iran has been completely nationalized and citizens' access to the global network is disrupted, the images released from the protests this morning in Hamadan are astonishing.
Is History Repeating Itself?
Observers say the coincidence of these protests with the months of Dey and Bahman recalls the historical experience of Dey and Bahman 1357; an experience that seems to be repeating itself once again in Dey and Bahman 1404.
These popular movements, which are taking shape due to internet outages and restrictions, clearly indicate that public anger and dissatisfaction are on the rise, and people no longer want to remain silent.
