Hundreds of people have taken to the streets this Friday to condemn the terrorist attack recorded on Wednesday against a Shiite mosque in the city of Shiraz, in the south of the country, where fifteen people have died and dozens have been injured.

The marches have been carried out simultaneously in the main cities, although the most massive is in Tehran, the country’s capital, according to information from the Mehr agency.

These demonstrations also coincide with the protests called for this Friday for the death of the young Masha Amini, which have been going on for more than a month.

The attack on the Shiraz mosque, which has been claimed by the Islamic State terrorist organization, occurred when the faithful were performing their prayers.

On Thursday, the president of Iran, Ebrahim Raisi, assured that the protests and disturbances registered during the last 40 days “pave the way for terrorist attacks” such as the one on the mosque and pointed out that the demonstrations favor violent acts by those who ” They don’t want Iran to prosper.” “Security and peace are necessary to produce knowledge and science,” he pointed out.
