“The people of Iran have come to the streets to achieve their fundamental rights and human dignity…and the government is responding to their peaceful protest with bullets,” AFP quoted Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, the director of the Oslo-based Iran Human Rights NGO as saying.
It is to be noted that Iran has been witnessing protests over the last one week against the hijab rules in the country and the agitation turned violent after the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini on September 16.
