PMOI Resistance Units mark Yalda with nationwide call for regime change
On December 21, as Iranians observed Yalda—the ancient festival of the Winter Solstice—members of the PMOI Resistance Units organized anti-regime activities across the country. Using the longest night of the year as a metaphor for the dark era of the clerical dictatorship, the Resistance Units spread a message of hope and defiance, emphasizing that the “dawn of freedom” is inevitable. In cities ranging from the capital, Tehran, to Mashhad in the northeast and Shiraz in the south, placards and banners appeared on streets and public places rejecting all forms of dictatorship. The central theme of these activities was a firm refusal to return to the monarchical past or tolerate the current theocracy. A slogan widely displayed in Karaj, Isfahan, Kermanshah, and Qazvin read, “Down with the oppressor, be it the shah or the supreme leader.”
Iranians Rally in Gothenburg Against Executions, Supporting Maryam Rajavi’s Ten-Point Plan for a Free Iran
Gothenburg, Sweden – December 20, 2025 – Iranian supporters of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) gathered in Gothenburg to express their backing for democratic change in Iran.

Iran’s Unprecedented and Alarming Surge in the Execution of Women
According to the latest consolidated data, at least 1,791 people were executed in Iran from the beginning of 2025 through the end of November 2025. This represents a shocking and unprecedented increase compared to 993 executions recorded throughout the entirety of 2024. With these figures, Iran remains the world’s leading executioner on a per capita basis. In November 2025 alone, 336 executions were carried out; the highest monthly figure recorded during the year. This pace indicates that the use of capital punishment has entered a phase of accelerated, routine, and crisis-level implementation. Within this broader wave of executions, at least 61 women were executed between January 2025 and 13 December 2025 (22 Azar 1404).
Lebanon Says First Phase of Hezbollah Disarmament Near Completion
Lebanon’s prime minister said the first phase of Hezbollah’s disarmament south of the Litani River is nearing completion, a development that has drawn strong reactions from Iranian military officials and renewed attention to Tehran’s role in Lebanon’s security dynamics. Prime Minister Nawaf Salam said on Saturday, December 19, 2024, that the initial phase of weapons collection in areas south of the Litani River is only “a few days” away from completion. Lebanese officials say the move is part of the government’s commitments under a U.S.-backed ceasefire agreement with Israel, which took effect in December 2024 and ended more than a year of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.
Iran’s Regime Conducts Missile Tests at Several Locations
The state-run Fars News Agency reported that missile tests were conducted on Monday, December 22, at several locations across Iran. This comes as the state-run IRIB (Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting) news agency said the published images are not related to an IRGC missile test. According to Fars News Agency, citing “field observations and public reports,” reports of missile tests were received from Khorramabad, Mahabad, Isfahan, Tehran, and Mashhad. Some images published on social media show a white missile trail in the sky over several areas inside Iran.
Nurse Suicides in Kermanshah Lay Bare the Regime’s Silent War on Iran’s Healthcare Workers
The reported suicide of two nurses in Kermanshah is not an isolated tragedy. It is a stark and painful symptom of a deeper, systemic crisis engineered by decades of misrule, exploitation, and institutional indifference under Iran’s clerical regime. In response to the incident, the Kermanshah Nurses’ Association issued a statement describing the crushing conditions faced by nurses in recent years: relentless workloads, forced and exhausting overtime, chronic staff shortages, unpaid wages, and severe livelihood insecurity. The association warned that continued neglect of these realities has “irreparable consequences for the individual and social well-being of this devoted profession. What becomes visible in moments like this is only the surface of a much darker reality. Human catastrophes within Iran’s healthcare system are far more widespread than official narratives admit.
