Pictures of Nika Shakarami, Hadis Najafi, Mahsa Amini and Sarina Esmailzadeh – women who have died during the protest movement – were shown at the bottom of the screen. A caption said ‘join us and stand up’ and ‘the blood of our youth is dripping from your claws’, a reference to Khamenei.
Protests that have broken out across Iran started in Kurdish regions of the country after the death last month of Amini while in the custody of Iran’s morality police.
