Another teenager, Parmis Hamnava, dies of internal bleeding after being beaten at school
Monday, October 31, marked the 46th day of the Iran uprising with students holding protests and sit-ins in dozens of universities in Tehran and other cities across Iran. Female students are particularly active in these protests and taking the lead.
Students of the all-female Az-Zahra University held a protest sit-in against the arrest of one of their fellow students. They held placards that read, “No suspensions for students, otherwise we just shut down the school.”
In the prestigious Amir Kabir University (a.k.a. Polytechnic), in downtown Tehran, students chanted, “We swear by the blood spilt from our fellow students, that we will remain steadfast to the end!”
Tehran University’s School of Technology – south and west units, Sharif University of Technology, Melli University, Khajeh Nasir University, and Azad University – Suhanak Branch were among the protesting universities.
Students at the Industrial University of Shahrud, Azad University of Mashhad, the universities of Sanandaj, Rasht, Babol, Tabriz, Sirjan, Urmia, Qazvin, and the School of Technology of Shiraz also held sit-in protests.
Student protests in so many universities across Iran, despite the heavy crackdown on them and shooting attacks on students on campuses indicate that they are not terrified by the IRGC’s savagery and prepared to pay the price of freedom.
