I could not watch the terror on their faces. Amazing courage by these Iranian men and women as #Iran security forces chase them into a residential building stairway then try to get in. These brave souls are out for #MahsaAmini, 22, killed by hijab police:

This lone Iranian woman at the beginning of the video joining men in turning #Iran police car upside down. Other women join in moments later.

Iranians remove a government religious banner in #Tehran on 30 September. The murder of #MahsaAmini, 22, by hijab police rocks #Iran.
