"People's uprising has made a historical union not only among Iranians inside the country, but also among Iranian diaspora, who despite all their linguistic, cultural and political differences, came together and gained an outstanding sympathy of people around the world," the Front Organization of Kurdish Iranian Opposition added.
The spokesperson for the 176 lost families of Ukrainian flight PS752, Hamed Esmaeilion has arranged a rally for freedom in Berlin to the fallen victims of the plane accident that was downed by an Iranian surface-to-air missile due to a malfunction, according to Iran state media. "We fully support his call, and we are asking for a high-level of participation in the event," the Front said.
Iran protests have entered their second month, with arrests and casualties increasing. Iran's interior minister said they have managed the protests and are under control.
The Islamic Republic of Iran accused Kurdish Iranian opposition groups of encouraging riots within Iran. It launched an unprecedented drone and missile attack on them in the Kurdistan region on September 28, which displaced hundreds and killed almost 20 people.
