In The Hague, protesters gathered at the Malieveld to denounce Iran’s theocratic leadership. Participants expressed concern over reports that security forces have used lethal force against demonstrators since the unrest began in late December. Many said they were unable to contact family members and friends in Iran due to severe communication restrictions.

Demonstrators stressed that people from all ages and social backgrounds in Iran continue to take to the streets demanding freedom and basic rights.
Similar demonstrations took place in Berlin, where protesters described the unrest as one of the most serious challenges to Iran’s authorities since the 1979 Islamic Revolution. Participants said public frustration has reached breaking point after years of economic hardship and political repression.

Protesters in Berlin said they hoped international pressure from Europe and the United States would help Iranians in their struggle against the ruling establishment, arguing that sustained global attention could influence the outcome of the crisis.
