The internal network of the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK<\/a>), commonly known as the\u00a0Resistance Units<\/a>, called for the Iranian people to undertake various activities across the country next month to mark the one-year anniversary of the nationwide November 2019 uprisings<\/a> and commemorate the martyrs who fell for freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They have named<\/a> November 15, 2019, which was the start of the protests over the tripling in fuel prices, as a \u201cnational day of commemoration in Iran\u2019s history\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within just a few days of the start of the uprising, the regime\u2019s forces had shot dead 1,500 protesters in the streets, while thousands more were injured or arrested or both. But this has not stopped the Resistance Units and the people from coming out in full force, keeping alive the spirit of the protests, which is the overthrow of the regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MEK <\/a>Resistance Units have also installed posters of Iranian Resistance leaders\u00a0Massoud <\/a>and Maryam Rajavi<\/a>, featuring slogans about regime change and democracy, in Tehran, Kerman, Urmia, Saveh, Karaj, Nishapur, Ahvaz, Qom, Shiraz, Isfahan, Eslamshahr, Rasht, Doroud, Saqqez, Hamadan, Mashhad, and Lahijan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
