Targeting civilian infrastructure is a war crime.

We’ve had enough of both sides targeting the people of Iran, whether it’s internal massacre or external war drums. What seem like opposing forces in reality reinforce each other, both crushing the same people. To think bombing Iran and its infrastructure would topple the regime and “save us” was a dangerous illusion sold by propaganda machines.

We’re already years back in our struggle with the Iranian government, especially after everything achieved during the Woman, Life, Freedom movement. Water and power are for our homes, not the regime. Hospitals, homes, daily life depend on them. Destroying them doesn’t weaken the government, it breaks lives.

We oppose the oppression and this war at the same time. This is enough. Speak out. Stop this war. End this. Wherever you are.

We reject the illusion that war brings freedom. It empowers the very dictators it claims to oppose, silences dissent, and crushes those already carrying the heaviest burdens: workers, women, ethnic minorities, and political dissidents. The infrastructure destroyed in war is ours. The land is ours. And we will not let anyone’s saviour complex ruin it.

We don’t choose between missiles and executions, between foreign airstrikes and domestic crackdowns.
Across borders, violence speaks the same language;
whether it’s airstrikes or exclusion, occupation or repression, war or mass arrests.

From refugee camps to political prisons, the same states that claim to protect us are the ones that crush us, polluting the air we breathe and expanding their control whenever people demand freedom.

We oppose both the bombs that fall from above and the boots that hold people down. We oppose both military intervention and the government that reproduces its domination through executions, surveillance, and mass arrests.

Woman Life Freedom is not a slogan.
It is a refusal of war, of dictatorship, of destruction.
It is a stand for dignity, for land, for breath, for the right to live freely and fully.
It is a call for democracy built from the grassroots, not imposed from above.

We stand with those resisting from below,
for life, for dignity, for a future that belongs to us.

It has long since it has become clear that solidarity has little to do with hope in governments saving one another. However, the global interconnections among people have also proven insufficient to lead to a change in everyday life practices, structures of domination, authoritarian governance, and social inequalities such as gender, socioeconomic, and ethnic discrimination in Iran. Some might think that these global linkages are even getting highjacked by the interventionist and Imperialist discourse, or at least provide a space to isolate Iranians even more: leaving the monster alone with the people in the blackbox. Iranians witnessed the hopelessness in global solidarity during the November 2019 (Aban Protests), when there were brutal shootings on the streets, massive security arrests, and an entire internet shutdown for a week. All around the world, they made it clear that we expect something beyond petty patronizing tones on social media. It is hard to frame what Iranians want from the global allies in one single narrative. We know that you are puzzled by this question, and we sympathize with those who wish to empower Iranians but do not find the right way. It is a struggle. Iranians will do their best to provide context for you.

But we can say one thing for sure—Solidarity and representation work hand in hand. The least you can do is echo voices from inside the country. Voices of those who are being oppressed and excluded from basic freedom and life qualities by living inside Iran. The people who are risking their lives by standing against guns and bullets. Women whose bodies and everyday life are forms of constant resistance in Iran. Workers who have risked their already hurt economic situation to crack down on the oppressive financial structure by significant strikes. Ethnic minorities who have been marginalized for decades both in forms of human and political rights and in socioeconomic measures of development and wellbeing. Representation Matters. Do not try to exotify it, do not undermine or exaggerate the movement. Be a voice for Iranians and trust their political agency. That’s how we perceive solidarity.

Activists are sounding the alarm over an increase in the number of underage marriages in Iran. Rural parents are increasingly forcing their young daughters into temporary marriage contracts so these contracts could later be used as a leverage to convince judges to issue permanent marriage licenses for these children, lawyer and activist for children’s rights Samira Damavandi recently told Iran’s BORNA News Agency. Considering such loopholes, even a parliament legislation to raise the legal age for marriage might do little to reduce these numbers. According to the Statistical Center of Iran, last year more than 31,000 marriages of girls between the ages of 10 and 14 were registered by the state. This shows a 10.5% annual increase.

زنگ خطر افزایش تعداد زنانی که پدرانشان با اجبار به ازدواج زودهنگام فرصت کودکی را از آنان میگیرند به صدا در آمده است. سمیرا دماوندی حقوقدان و کنشگر حقوق کودکان اخیرا در گفتگویی با خبرگزاری برنا از رواج صیغه‌‌ی کودکان دختر در روستاها با هدف تحت فشار قراردادن قاضی برای صدور مجوز ازدواج گفته است. با این وجود ممکن است حتی تصویب قانون سن ازدواج هم تاثیر معنی‌داری بر تعداد موارد کودک‌همسری نگذارد. براساس آمار منتشر شده توسط مرکز آمار ایران، در سال گذشته ۳۱ هزار و ۳۷۹ دختر ۱۰ تا ۱۴ ساله ازدواج کرده‌اند. این آمار در مقایسه با آمار سال ۹۸ بیانگر رشد ۱۰.۵ درصدی ازدواج دختران در این رده‌ی سنی است. این آمار تنها معطوف به ازدواج‌های ثبت شده در سازمان ثبت احوال کشور است؛ بر این اساس حتی آمار دقیقی از تعداد موارد ازدواج کودکان در ایران در دسترس نیست.

Iran Students News Agency has published photos of an impoverished family who live in the ashes of their burnt home—a symbolic example perhaps of millions of Iranians whose lives are sinking to the darkest depths of poverty and deprivation. According to a recent report published by the Ministry of Cooperatives, Labor and Social Welfare, 26 million Iranians were officially considered impoverished in 2019; meaning nearly one out of three Iranians fell below what the report defines as a poverty line income. Deprivation rate recorded a 38% increase in 2020, the report adds. So far in 2021, prices of highly-consumed food items alone have registered a 30-90% increase. A 44% inflation rate for the beginning of summer might be a good indicator that, by the end of this year, economic hardship will cast even a bigger shadow on the lives of Iranians.

تصاویر تکان‌دهنده‌ی خبرگزاری ایسنا از خانواده‌ای در حاشیه شهر اصفهان که بدلیل فقر در خاکستر خانه‌ی سوخته‌شان زندگی میکنند—شاید نمونه‌ای نمادین از میلیون‌ها ایرانی که وضعیت بحرانی اقتصاد روزگارشان را سیاه کرده است. بر اساس گزارش رسمی وزارت تعاون، کار و رفاه اجتماعی نرخ فقر در سال ۹۸ حدود ۳۲ درصد بوده؛ یعنی در سال ۹۸ از هر سه ایرانی یک نفر زیر خط فقر زندگی کرده است. این آمار نشان‌دهنده‌ی رسیدن جمعیت زیر خط فقر به ۲۶ میلیون نفر است. همچنین بر اساس این گزارش، خط فقر سال ۹۹ نسبت به سال ۹۸ رشد ۳۸ درصدی داشته است. تا کنون در سال 1400، تنها قیمت مواد غذایی پرمصرف، ۳۰ تا ۹۰ درصد افزایش یافته است. با گذشتن نرخ تورم تیرماه از 44 درصد، به نظر میرسد امسال فقر و محرومیت بر سر ایرانیان بیشتری سایه افکند. اطلاعات این خانواده برای کمک خیرین در واحد اصفهان خبرگزاری ایسنا در دسترس است.
