Iran’s dictator Khameini orders killing protestors and shutting down Internet over the On-going protests
Tehran – Iran’s Supreme dictator Ali Khamenei ordered to shoot the protestors and shut down the Internet during the on-going protests against the hike in petrol prices.
National Council of Resistance of Iran reported that over eight young Iranians and a dozen were injured by IRGC forces on the direct command of Khamenei during the protests in the cities of Sirjan, Behbahan, Karaj, Shiraz, Khorramshahr and Marivan.
According to Voice of America, petrol in the country still remains among the cheapest in the world, with the new prices jumping up to a minimum of 15,000 rials per liter of petrol which is 50% up from the day before. That is 13 cents a liter, about five times lower than the cost of gasoline in the United States by comparison.
However, People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI) hailed the Iranian people “who have risen up today and honored the memory of those who have lost their lives in this proud uprising”.
