Hamid Ismailioon, a board member of the Association of Families of Victims of Flight PS752, announced in a statement on Monday that he will participate in the demonstration next Saturday in Toronto. Mr. Ismailioon stated, "On Saturday, September 16, I will be with thousands of my compatriots in Toronto, I will repeat the slogan 'Women, Life, Freedom,' and I know the Islamic Republic will fall into the hands of Iranians sooner or later." According to Mr. Ismailioon, "The murder of Mahsa reached the spirit of society to a boiling point." This prominent opponent of the Islamic Republic said that the killing of Mahsa revived the memory of the victims of the Cinema Rex in Abadan, the executions on the roof of the Refah School, and the victims of Flight PS752. He noted the participation of various sectors, including women, youth, and artists in the 'Women, Life, Freedom' revolution, stating that these protests "quickly spread worldwide." According to Mr. Ismailioon, "In many parts of the world, everyone understood that Iranians have reached an irreversible point and must think about a future without the Islamic Republic in the Middle East." This human rights activist explained the anti-Islamic Republic protests by saying, "We Iranians have rightly learned to rely on ourselves." He added, "If a revolution is to occur, that revolution will be within the borders of Iran." Mr. Ismailioon further accused the West of "collusion with the Islamic Republic" and stated that there should not be "an obstacle to this great transformation" as well as "the destination of the affiliates of the Islamic Republic and their families." In conclusion, he expressed hope for attending a "neutral court in Iran" to prosecute "the killers of my loved ones and their companions," stating, "We will understand the truth and achieve justice. We neither forget nor forgive." On the eve of the anniversary of Mahsa Amini's death in custody of the 'Guidance Patrol,' her parents, in a joint text published on the Instagram page of Amjad Amini, announced the holding of "traditional and religious ceremonies" at her grave, inviting "everyone" to "avoid any violent actions and reactions against it." The killing of Mahsa (Zhina) Amini in the custody of the Guidance Patrol on September 16 last year marked the beginning of widespread peaceful protests against the Islamic Republic. In response to these peaceful protests, Islamic Republic security forces killed nearly 600 protesters, injured thousands, and arrested over 20,000. Queen Farah Pahlavi on the anniversary of Mahsa Amini: Let us unite to keep the 'flame of revolution' alive. The U.S. addressed the officials of the Islamic Republic: Instead of blaming others, listen to the people's voice. Asal Jazideh, an injured protester: Seeking justice has changed my life like an 'unquenchable fire.' Exclusive; Kian Derakhshan: I am certain we will succeed and establish freedom and democracy. Continued pressures on the families seeking justice; a member of the family of Reza Moazemi-Goodarzi was arrested. Intensified pressures ahead of the anniversary of Mahsa; Reza Norouzi and Hossein Hosseinpour were arrested. Prince Reza Pahlavi on the eve of Mahsa Amini's anniversary: The pain and healing of Iran have national dimensions.
