Žene u Iranu protestovale su protiv nošenja hidžaba, a snimci i fotografije obišli su svet putem društvenih mreža. Najveći utisak ostavila je starica, koja se priključila protestu.

Na jednom od snimaka vidi se starica, koja očigledno teško hoda, penje se na zaleđenu fontanu, skida svoj hidžab i prkosno maše njime kao zastavom, po uzoru na brojne mlade Iranke koje su to već učinile.

Iranska policija tvrdi da su na ponašanje tih žena uticali stranci, govoreći da su uhapšene "obmanute".
Masih Alinedžad, jedna od aktivistkinja, kaže, međutim, da ih niko iz inostranstva nije podstakao na to.

A growing number of women are removing their mandatory head scarves & waving them on the streets of Tehran: a courageous symbol of civil protest against the hijab; forced on women in Iran for decades. Six women so far and it seems they're just starting! #دختران_خیابان_انقلابpic.twitter.com/B8BZqNwZDQ

Žene u Iranu hidžab moraju da nose još od 1979. godine.

U Iranu su prošlog meseca izbili protesti zbog rastućih troškova života i stagnirajuće ekonomije, međutim to je nateralo i žene da se bore za jednaka prava, prenosi Tanjug.
