Tehran, June 23 (V7N) – Thousands of people took to the streets of Tehran on Sunday to protest against the recent U.S. airstrikes in Iran. Demonstrations began early in the morning across various parts of the capital city, drawing large crowds expressing their dissent. Later, President Masoud Pezeshkian joined the protesters, lending his support to the movement.
The demonstrators were seen chanting slogans such as “Demand justice for America’s aggression,” “Down with America,” and “Destroy Israel.” The protests reflect widespread anger and condemnation of the U.S. military actions within Iran’s capital and beyond.
The rallies continued throughout the day, marking one of the largest public displays of opposition since the recent escalation of tensions between the two nations. Authorities have maintained a strong presence in key areas to monitor the gatherings.
This wave of protests underscores the growing domestic backlash against foreign military interventions and the heightened geopolitical friction in the region. Further updates will follow as the situation develops.
