Kazem Gharibabadi, the Secretary of Iran’s Human Rights Headquarters, stated that the role of Instagram and Twitter in promoting violence in Iran has been documented.
In the past seven weeks, Instagram has opened millions of posts and thousands of pages.
Relevant agencies in the Islamic Republic of Iran have collected all the evidence regarding the promotion of violence, advertising the sale of firearms, encouraging people to take to the streets, and the destruction of public and private property.
The responsible bodies in the Islamic Republic of Iran have corresponded with Meta, the owner of WhatsApp and Instagram, stating that these pages should be closed, but they have done nothing.
We do not forget that after the cowardly assassination of Martyr Soleimani, millions of posts and pages that only mentioned Martyr Haj Qasem were deleted.
Twitter opens four thousand Persian accounts monthly. In just the past month, as we face unrest, Twitter has opened more than 50,000 fake accounts at the behest of the United States. These 50,000 accounts are not managed by 50,000 real individuals but by several people or are robotic, aiming to wage a propaganda and psychological war against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
