Maryam Rajavi, an Iranian political activist and Iranian opposition figure, said the Iranian resistance protests have “shaken the regime to its core.”

Rajavi, head of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), noted that “resistance units” have “repeatedly liberated parts of several cities,” which she described as “practical experience for the final freedom of the entire country.”

Rajavi said the “uprising has shown that the will of the people and the resistance is stronger than the Revolutionary Guards, and dozens of the regime’s security and military institutions.”

Rajavi included a message to the international community in her video that she posted to X.

“Of course, our people have paid a high price, with many young lives lost. They represent the legitimate demands of the people, who want a life based on human dignity: A democratic republic, with separation of religion and state, and gender equality,” she said. 

“We call on the international community to fulfill a long-overdue responsibility: to recognize the struggle of the Iranian people and the fight of the young protesters to overthrow the religious dictatorship,” she added.
