Note by Gino d'Artali: The Zan, zendagi, azadi!> (Women, life, freedom) has just started and will only then end when khamenei and his puppets i.e. the morality police and the basijis give way or get lost!!
So Chapter 6 is where the protests continue and I'll continue to inform you about it. That's my pledge.

<<UN names three women to probe Iran protests crackdown
Geneva (AFP) - The United Nations on Tuesday named three women to lead a rights investigation into Iran's violent crackdown on women-led protests that have rocked the Islamic republic for more than three months. Bangladesh Supreme Court lawyer Sara Hossain, Pakistani law professor Shaheen Sardar Ali and rights activist Viviana Krsticevic from Argentina will be the independent members of the fact-finding mission, UN Human Rights Council head Federico Villegas announced. Hossain, a long-time human rights activist, will chair the investigation, the council presidency added. Iran is highly unlikely to allow the trio to enter the country and carry out their mission, with Tehran fiercely opposing the creation of the international investi-gation that 47 rights council members voted for last month. The three women will document the Iranian authorities' repression of the protests and potential human rights violations with a view to possi-ble legal action against officials in Iran or elsewhere. Mass demonstrations, unprecedented since the 1979 Islamic revolution, have swept across the country since September after the death in custody of Iranian-Kurdish woman Mahsa Amini, leading to violent and sometimes deadly clashes with security forces.>>

<<Escape from Iran: protesters regroup in Iraq after perilous journey
In late October, Paiman, an Iranian protester from the restive city of Mahabad, lay in a hospital ward, guarded by regime officials who had gunned him down during anti-government demonstrations. Buckshot from a shotgun blast riddled his legs and torso, and blows to his head with wooden clubs had left him dazed and in agony.
Paiman needed treatment, which he was not about to get from a regime where mercy, let alone medicine, has been in short supply since the outset of an uprising that - three months since it began - continues to pose a profound and sustained threat to Iran's hardline leadership. The 28-year-old veterinarian's fate seemed tied to that of other protesters who had died in the same hospital often two to three days after being admitted. But his brother and cousin had other ideas. <We launched a rescue operation and took him from the bed, then we smuggled him here,> said Paiman's brother, Aso, from a safe house in Erbil in neighbouring Iraq. <It was a four-day journey across the mountains, much of it on horses. It was the toughest thing we have done.> Paiman and his relatives are among the few demonstrators to have made the precarious journey from Iran to the relative safety of Iraq, where some survivors of the violence are trying to regroup. Iraqi Kurdish officials estimate that dozens of protesters have crossed the border. Protesters themselves say the number is likely to be in the low hundreds. Sitting on a floor, covered in a blanket, his skin pallid and his breathing shallow, he described the mounting violence that met the demonstrations in Mahabad, a predominantly Kurdish city in north-eastern Iran that has remained a focus of the clashes - the most serious threat to Iran's clerical leaders since the revolution that swept them to power 43 years ago.
<Mahsa Amini was a Kurd, it is true,> said Paiman, <but the revolution is a popular one, made up of Iranians from all parts of the country. There are Baluchis, Azeris, Persians and others. This is be-cause we are all sick of them and their repression. <Make no mistake, this was a revolution from its earliest days. It was not just protests. The revolutionary current that started this will see it to a finish. They are weak and they are scared of us,> he said of Iranian officials who continue to combat widespread daily shows of dissent with violence. But fear cuts both ways; even in exile, the brothers, who have been joined by a cousin in their rented home in an Erbil suburb, still worry that Iranian officials could reach them.>>

Iranian authorities arrested one of the country's most famous actresses on charges of spreading falsehoods about nationwide protests that grip the country, state media said Saturday.

<<Special report: Iran: Amunition made in France?
An investigation by the FRANCE 24 Observers has provoked a furious reaction from Iranians in Iran and around the world. In an article published November 25, the Observers team published photographs showing 13 shotgun cartridges bearing the logos of Cheddite, a French-Italian ammunition manufacturer, that had been recovered from protests in Iran. The presence of EU-made ammunition in Iran is an apparent violation of a 2011 EU sanction banning the <export, directly or indirectly, [of] equipment which might be used for internal repression> in Iran. The article was massively shared by Iranians on Twitter, Telegram and other social networks. One poster wrote: <Hundreds of Iranians have been blinded by shotgun pellets made by a Franco--Italian company. What does this company doing business with the mullahs' regime have to say about it?> >>
