Police: About 200,000 people joined the demonstration against the Iranian regime in Munich

Around 200,000 protesters gathered in Munich to condemn the Iranian government following recent violent crackdowns on nationwide protests.

In a significant demonstration held at Theresienwiese in Munich, approximately 200,000 protesters came together to express their condemnation of the Iranian regime. The gathering was particularly charged following a recent crackdown that resulted in the deaths of thousands of protesters across Iran. Many participants displayed flags featuring the symbol of the overthrown monarchy from 1979, showcasing their demand for a change in governance and highlighting the historical ties to Iran's pre-revolutionary era.

Among the speakers at the event was Reza Pahlavi, the son of the last Shah of Iran, who has been living in exile since his father's overthrow. At the Munich Security Conference, Pahlavi called on world leaders, specifically U.S. President Donald Trump, to take action in support of the Iranian people's plight. He advocated for international humanitarian intervention to prevent further loss of innocent lives as the situation in Iran deteriorates under the current regime.

The protests are not limited to Germany, with similar events planned in cities like Toronto and Los Angeles, reflecting the global solidarity with those opposing the Iranian government. Human rights organizations have reported grave human rights violations, claiming thousands have died due to the government's violent suppressions. The ongoing protests highlight an urgent call for action from the international community to address human rights abuses in Iran and support the demonstrators' demands for freedom and reform.
