iReport —

Although things seem to be calming down in iran to outsiders, it is not. This is only because they have arrested the  people who were getting the news out for the world to see. They are following IP addresses and crashing into peoples homes to arrest these people and to prevent the news from getting out.

Arrested journalists have been threatened to write in support of Ahmadinejad and his government and not to support popular gatherings anymore

 

Today the main gatherings are at Baharestan Square and Vali Asr in Tehran where there is army helicopters flying around with thousands of detainees family members gathered infront of Tehrans revoution (Enghelab) court. The force police surrounds them, and attack even pedestrians who are walking by.

The Islamic Republic of Iran does not allow, under ANY circumstances any for of mouring for NEDA ( who represents all the martyrs during the past week).


The steets , squares and around Baharestan (Approx. South-eastern of Tehran) is swarming with military forces, civilian forces, the security motorists and plain clothed BASIJIS.

In Baharestan Sq. there is a police shooting, a girl is shot and the police is PREVENTING people from going to help this shot girl.

People are gathered in Baharestan but the police & Basij's dont let the core of the rally to form.

All shops and passages are closed and gunshots are being heard from different streets.

 

About 5000 protesters gathered at Sadeghieh Sq, Bassij and Hezbolla start attacking them with helicopters still flying up ahead and vans with heavy machine guns are moving towards Azadi St.

Theres also protesters gathered at Sepah Sq.

The shootings continue and the conflict between protesters and special guards is increasing, so far 3 people have been shot (known of). Peak of conflicts is happening at Jomhuri street.

 

- these are bit by bit infos coming from someone in Iran via facebook - WHO is beeing looked for all across the country and now seems that facebook is trying to shut down his account.
