protests have been continuing today, the biggest of that was in zahedan. as you said, just a month ago there was a really deadly rally in that city which iranian protesters now refer to as bloody friday. after friday prayers about a month ago, protesters rallied in the city and something close to between 90 and 100 protesters were actually shot dead by security forces and riot police, including several children. since then every friday has been processed. most, since then. because of the backlash that happened after that deadly friday protest nearly one month ago. today, once again security forces opening fire on protesters. i saw a video today of a teenager getting shot in the head and unfortunately getting killed. i have seen videos of people covered in blood in other parts of zahedan, really disturbing scenes. what is curious about this is just yesterday we heard reports in iranian state media saying that the head of the police force in zahedan had actually been sacked because of his response to the protests a month ago in which 100 protesters were kill
