UN Report Highlights Iran's Women's Rights Struggle
News summary

Two years after Mahsa Amini's death in custody for allegedly violating Iran's dress code, the 'Women, Life, Freedom' movement remains strong, symbolized by increasing numbers of women defying mandatory hijab laws. Despite heavy repression, including house arrests for Amini's parents and blocked access to her burial site, women are seen walking hijab-less in major cities. Reformist President Masoud Pezeshkian has vowed to stop the harassment of women, but ultimate authority Ayatollah Khamenei maintains a strict stance against unveiling. Iranian cinema also continues to challenge state oppression, with films like 'My Favourite Cake' facing severe backlash and censorship. The anniversary is marked by protests and hunger strikes, showing persistent resistance against the regime's oppressive policies.
