Iran pardons over 20,000 people who took part in anti-government protests
According to Iran’s official IRNA news agency, over 20,000 people who participated in widespread anti-government protests have been pardoned. This comes months after tens of thousands of people took to the streets across the country in protest following the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini who passed away after she was detained by authorities for her alleged breach of the dress code.
