Protest against compulsory hijab in Tehran; Girls on Enghelab Street are "not finished"
Photos posted on social media show another girl on Enghelab Street in Tehran, tying her headscarf or shawl to a pole to show her protest against the mandatory hijab.
A Twitter user posted two photos of a girl on the street with her black scarf tied around her head, writing, "The girls on Revolution Street are endless."
The time and location of these photos were reported to be Saturday, February 17, at the intersection of Karim Khan and Hafez streets in Tehran.
The identity of this girl is still unknown, and official media inside Iran have not published any news about this civil protest.
In January of last year, many women wore headscarves and stood on electric platforms in the streets of Tehran and other cities. Their peaceful protest resulted in a harsh response from the Islamic Republic, with some of these women sentenced to prison and long-term deprivations.
The United States says the Iranian regime is severely suppressing peaceful protests by its people.
