has been besieged by protests from Iranian workers over the past week, showing that the regime is unpopular in all sectors.
Haft Tappeh Sugarcane Company workers contuned their protest rally outside the Shush governorate for the 73rd consecutive day on Wednesday.
Many repressive security and police agents were dispatched to the scene to suppress the workers’ legal and peaceful gathering, but still, the protesters said they would continue their protests until their demands are met. The demands are:
- Payment of missing wages
- Renewal of their insurance booklets
- Rehiring of dismissed worker
- Arrest of corrupt CEO Omid Assadbeigi and life imprisonment
- Dismissal of corrupt employers
- Return of embezzled wealth to workers
- Ending the careers of retired managers
On Tuesday, relatives of those killed during the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) shootdown of the Ukrainian International Airlines flight PS752 gathered outside the Ukrainian embassy in Tehran to demand a meeting with the Ukrainian ambassador. They carried photos of their deceased loved ones.
The IRGC shot down the civilian plane in January with two surface-to-air missiles, killing all 176 passengers and crew on board.
