Iran has seen mass anti-regime protests since the death of a young Kurdish woman, the 22-year-old Jina Mahsa Amini, in the custody of "morality police," who had arrested her for allegedly not wearing the hijab, or Islamic head scarf, appropriately.
According to human rights organizations, about 18,000 protesters have been arrested so far. At least 11 of them have been convicted of "war against God."
