Khabatmdia: Protesters have ventured into the streets of Iran. Thousands of Iranians protested across the country after the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps admitted to shooting down the Ukrainian plane, killing 176 passengers.
Protesters in Babol, Isfahan, Shiraz, Tehran, Abadan, Mashhad, Sanandaj (Sine), Hamedan and Kermanshah demand, among other things, that the dictatorial leadership in Iran and Ali Kamnenei must resign.
Iranian security forces have responded with water cannons and tear gas. Police fired tear gas at protesters in front of Amir Kabir University in Tehran
Protesters sang: “Incompetent officials, resignation, resignation; we did not sacrifice live to compromise and praise the murderous leader; shameless, shameless; death to dictator. "
At least 15 protesters were arrested in Bojnourd for keeping watch and pictures of the victims.
The commander of the IRGC s aerospace force responsible for shooting down the plane said at a press conference that armed forces are responsible for not preventing the flight of a passenger plane over Iran despite "war conditions".
He added that the air defense system mistook the Ukrainian passenger plane with a cruise missile. The IRGC on Saturday, three days after the incident, took responsibility for shooting down the Ukrainian plane which led to the death of 176 passengers and crew.
