London, UK. 22nd September 2018. On the 30th anniversary of the massacre of 18,000 political prisoners in between July and September 1988, protesters in Trafalgar Square call for an end to the continuing executions of any opposition to the regime, including national minorities such as the Azeris, Kurds, Arabs, Turkmen and Balouchis and communists and other progressive movements. The mass protests which began in January 2018 across the country by the young urban poor have been followed by brutal repression with more than 10,000 arrests and new waves of executions of political prisoners, including the six Kurdish activists shown on one of the banners executed on 8-10th September. The protest, called by the People Fadaii Guerrillas of Iran in London and the Democratic Anti-imperialist Organisation of Iranians in London condemned all the executions and called for the release of all political prisoners in Iran, as well as for the revolutionary overthrow of the Islamic regime.
