Click “read more” for a photo of the banner of Ayatollah Khameini on fire, and photos of nurses and doctors protesting the regime on June 20. The one photo is of the agents trying to arrest a 20-year old demonstrator. The photo was sent to me with a note saying that he had run away from the police and was demonstrating, and when they tried to arrest him, he was thrown to the ground and his artery was cut with a knife. The photo is from right before he was killed.
