The Governor of Tehran: These gatherings are not the actions of ordinary people
Mohsen Mansouri, the Governor of Tehran, tweeted in response to last night’s gatherings of Tehran’s people protesting the murder of Mahsa Amini
The main elements of the initial cores of tonight’s gatherings in Tehran were completely organized, trained, and aimed at creating chaos in Tehran. Burning flags, pouring gasoline in the streets, throwing stones, attacking the police, setting fire to motorcycles and trash bins, and destroying public property are not actions of ordinary people.
