Uprising in East Kurdistan and Iran leaves three months behind

The "Jin, Jiyan, Azadi" uprising in East Kurdistan and Iran has left three months behind in spite of a deepening government crackdown.

Sparked by the death of 22-year-old Kurdish woman Mahsa Amini in the custody of morality police in September, the nationwide protests in Iran have left 90 days behind.

Sonya Sharif, who was released after two months of detention, was welcomed on Thursday by a massive crowd in the city of Abadan in the Ilam province. The event turned into a demonstration.

A citizen named Elireza Kerim was commemorated in the Shabadi city of Kermanshah province 40 days after she was killed by the regime forces.

Families of six citizens who were sentenced to death in the city of Urmia have been prevented from visiting prisons.

In spite of arrests and killings, anti-government protests continue in many cities of Iran and East Kurdistan.

According to a statement by the Iranian Human Rights Organization on December 14, 493 citizens have been killed by the regime forces from the day protests started to December 13. The statement revealed that 68 of those killed were under the age of 18.

It is reported that at least 18,424 people have been detained during demonstrations so far.
