MEK Resistance Units expand activities in several cities across Iran
MEK Resistance Units project images of Resistance leaders in Tehran.
Members of Resistance Units, an expanding network of brave and resilient Iranians associated with the opposition People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), are escalating their ongoing campaign of measures aimed at weakening the regime’s crackdown across the country. In recent days, the Resistance Units carried out activities in several cities, including Tehran, Mashhad, Rasht, Sabzevar, and Isfahan.
In Rasht, one of the country’s main northern cities with a large population, anti-regime slogans were aired in public on June 23:
“Death to Khamenei, hail to Rajavi!” respectively referring to regime Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and Iranian Resistance leader Massoud Rajavi.
“Death to Khamenei-Raisi!” another slogan read, referring to the regime supreme leader and regime President Ebrahim Raisi.
“Khomeini be damned!” referring to the regime’s first supreme leader Ruhollah Khomeini.
The slogans also called Raisi as “the butcher of 1988,” referring to the pivotal role he played in the massacre of more than 30,000 political prisoners in 1988.
In Sabzevar, the resistance units aired excerpts from speeches delivered by Mr. Rajavi and Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian opposition coalition National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI).
In addition to anti-regime slogans, the Resistance Units aired slogans that reflect the Iranian people’s desire to overthrow the mullahs’ rule and not return to the dictatorship of the Shah:
“Neither the Shah nor the turban, the mullahs are running out of time.”
In Bojnurd, the Resistance Units aired anti-regime slogans at a public park on June 10, 2022, including slogans against Khamenei, Raisi, and the mullahs’ rule in its entirety. The Resistance Units called for accountability of the perpetrators of the 1988 massacre and made it clear that Iran’s people don’t want to return to the Shah dictatorship.
On June 12, Resistance Units projected large pictures of Massoud and Maryam Rajavi in Isfahan’s Zayandeh Rud Bus Terminal, one of the crowded parts of the city.
In Tehran, the Resistance Units projected the images of Resistance leaders in Tehran’s Kianshahr district, Azadegan Blvd.
These campaigns coincide with the Resistance Units ramping up their anti-regime activities across the country. In one notable case, the Resistance Units took over thousands of security cameras and servers of Tehran Municipality in May. Regime authorities are still struggling to bring back their systems online and have mostly lost control on their spying and surveillance apparatus.

Written by Mansoureh Galestan On Friday, January 21, Dr. Javad Safari, a retired university lecturer, committed suicide due to financial difficulties and after not receiving his pension for months. His tragic death once again highlights how the Iranian regime’s plunder and corruption have devastated people’s lives. Meanwhile, news broke out that in November, Hojat Abdolmaleki, the regime’s Minister of Cooperatives, Labor, and Social Welfare, has “donated” 60 billion rials (roughly $1.5M USD) to a TV game show. Abdolmaleki’s ministry controls Iran’s Social Security Organization, National Pension Organization, Social Security Investment Company (Shasta). The fate of Dr. Javad Safari, his family, and other Iranian pensioners is in the hands of the likes of Abdolmaleki. In a letter to Abdolmaleki, Ali Foroughi, the director of state-run Channel 3 TV, asked for a 480 billion rials investment for making 780 episodes of the “Square” contest. In less than 24 hours, Abdolmaleki...
By Dr. Majid Rafizadeh. On Wednesday, the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) announced that it had arrested three individuals on charges of spying for the Israeli intelligence service, Mossad. The identity of the persons in question or the evidence that led to allegations against them were not revealed. Vulnerable political parties or authoritarian regimes that lack an agenda for prosperity and development have always invoked foreign boogeymen, in that they are useful to blame for one’s failures. For example, In 1980, the mullahs provoked their western neighbor into war and used the “the divine blessing”— as former Supreme Leader Ruhollah Khomeini put it — to wipe out domestic opposition. The Mujahedin-e-Khalq (PMOI), the People’s Fedayeen Organization, or any progressive movement that would have dared to speak out for democracy or women’s rights faced brutal crackdown, as a fifth columnist. The Irania...
