Simaye Azadi, a 24\/7 Persian-speaking TV network, operates solely on contributions, maintaining independence from foreign influence, immune to external intervention and regime policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Broadcast on multiple satellite platforms, including Express AM6, Hot Bird 13B\/C, Eutelsat 7B, and Turkmen\u00c4lem, INTV has a global reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">January 11, 2024\u2014Iranian Communities Worldwide: Join the 28th <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FreeIranTelethon?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FreeIranTelethon<\/a> Supporting <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/simayazaditv?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@simayazaditv<\/a>, January 12-14, 2024 \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iran?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iran<\/a> Freedom<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FreeIran2024?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FreeIran2024<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ZHupUlKhSh\">https:\/\/t.co\/ZHupUlKhSh<\/a><\/p>\u2014 Iran Freedom (@4FreedominIran) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/4FreedominIran\/status\/1745694230796738582?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 12, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Gholam from the United States, who made a collective contribution of $10,000 said, \u201cThis telethon once again showed that supporters of this Resistance movement are countless. People are eagerly waiting in line for days to make contributions, and regardless of the amount, they do it with humility.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Azar and Behzad from Canada who contributed $1.5 million said, \u201cWe are making this contribution because we have witnessed how selfless members of the Iranian Resistance are and how every penny is used by the INTV to reflect the voice of the Iranian people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI make a million-dollar contribution from my personal account and I feel proud because you connect us with the pain of our people inside the country and encourage us by showing the bravery of the defiant youth who challenge the regime\u2019s authority,\u201d Azar added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simay-e Azadi, the pioneering and longest-standing Persian satellite network broadcasting from Europe, commands a substantial audience both within Iran and abroad. Operating independently and relying exclusively on public contributions, INTV has steadfastly combated the regime\u2019s censorship and relentless interference for years, ensuring coverage aligns with the interests of the Iranian people and their Resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Playing a pivotal role in the past major uprisings in Iran, Simay-e Azadi amplified the voices of Iranians rejecting the ruling theocracy and any return to the deposed monarchy or a ruling system that refuses to reflect people\u2019s demands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Simay-e-Azadi-INTV's 28th #FreeIranTelethon: Unveiling the Voices of Freedom\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uUDHyOKHpPs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are proud to support the INTV because it showed the Iranian people\u2019s desire for a republic, and how they rejected pseudo alternatives during the uprising by chanting \u2018down with the oppressor be it the Shah or mullahs,\u201d said a group of Iranians from Southern California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The telethon witnessed a remarkable global outreach, with Iranians from 41 countries and diverse ethnic backgrounds within Iran contributing morally and financially to INTV. Spanning for several dozen hours, the telethon provided more than a hundred telephone lines for participation, while many Iranians engaged through social media platforms such as Telegram and Skype.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m making a contribution of $1,010 and I\u2019m sorry that I don\u2019t have more to give. In her last video before martyrdom in the 2022 nationwide uprising, Hadis Najafi said she is joining the uprising to tell future generations that she did not neglect her duties. Now I make this contribution to feel I have done something for my people,\u201d said Mohammad from Brazil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The telethon featured impassioned calls from defiant youths within Iran and courageous members of the Resistance Units, an internal network of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) pivotal to the ongoing nationwide protests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI dedicate my activities, including projecting a large image of the Iranian Resistance leaders inside the country to the INTV,\u201d said a member of the MEK Resistance Units.<br>\u201cI\u2019m not in the position to contribute, but I urge our compatriots outside of Iran to make contributions instead of us. I know the price of liberty, as many other youths like me knew and paid that price.

The telethon bore witness to heartfelt and poignant calls, with some contributors making pledges amidst the economic challenges gripping the nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy dear children, while I suffer from Iran\u2019s economic crunch like millions more, I must support the INTV. Therefore, I sell my car and make a contribution,\u201d Fatemeh, an elderly woman and a longtime supporter of Simay-e Azadi, said in her letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 28th INTV telethon attracted diverse participants, including individuals from academia, physicians, engineers, CEOs, directors, and youths whose connection to their homeland fueled their support for their compatriots sparking a revolution on Iran\u2019s streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These calls, coupled with the unwavering efforts of the Iranian Resistance Units within the country, not only underscore the robust social and political foundation of the Iranian Resistance in Iran but also mirror the profound desire of the Iranian people to overthrow the regime and establish a democratic nation, regardless of the sacrifices involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Paris, France: MEK Supporters Expressed Their Support of the 28th #FreeIranTelethon\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0LU0EVlJXzU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The \u201cSimay-e Azadi\u201d (INTV) an Iranian opposition satellite channel telethon program successfully concluded its 28th telethon, running until January 15, 2024.
