The

has abolished its

, which enforces the mandatory hijab. But this is an overstatement. The regime has not made any such concession as

enter their twelfth straight week. (1/7)
Breaking News: Iran has abolished its morality police after months of protests set off by the death of Mahsa Amini, a young woman who was arrested over the strict Islamic dress code.
This reporting is based on misinterpreted remarks from Iranian Prosecutor General
#Montazeri
on December 3. Montazeri noted that the regime has reduced morality patrols—comments mistakenly framed by Western media as confirming the abolition of the patrol. (2/7)
Iranian state media quickly clarified that Montazeri was only acknowledging the reduced morality patrols but not confirming their abolition. No other regime official has indicated the end of the patrol. (3/7)
The regime could still offer limited and temporary concessions to quell the ongoing protests. Montazeri previously stated that Parliament and the Supreme Cultural Revolution Council will announce an opinion on the mandatory hijab by December 17. (4/7)
Khamenei argues that the regime has not done enough to ideologize the population—reflecting his desire to entrench his views more deeply in society. The idea that the regime will ease its social oppression is fundamentally incompatible with his vision for the future. (6/7)
این رشتو چندزبانه برای مقابله با انتشار اخبار فیک مثل« تعطیلی کشت ارشاد» هست. و آگاه سازی خبرگزاری های خارجی در مورد جنایات سیستماتیک ج.ا مثل: تجاوز، آدم ربایی و کور کردن عمدی چشم معترضین. میتونید زیر پست خبرگذاری ها و خبرنگاران کپی کنید.
Here we go. Iran’s state TV openly says the news of abolishing the morality police isn’t true.
Dear Western news outlets like
@nytimes
: why don’t you properly fact check your news?
You’re doing damage to the cause of ongoing revolution in Iran.
