Tears and anger in Europe as exiled Iranians protest government crackdown
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"Standing on an open truck making its way through Berlin, Anahita Safarnejad turned to the crowd of Iranian protesters marching behind her and took the microphone. No more dictatorship in Iran, the mullahs must go! she shouted. Hundreds of voices echoed her slogan with the same sense of urgency and desperation. Across Europe, thousands of exiled Iranians have taken to the streets to shout out their rage at the government of the Islamic Republic which has cracked down on protests in their homeland,"
The Independent operates without paywalls and solicits donations to fund reporters who can cover both sides and produce documentaries. Journalists investigate topics such as Elon Musk's pro‑Trump PAC finances and reproductive‑rights activism. In Berlin, Anahita Safarnejad addressed thousands of exiled Iranian protesters from an open truck, shouting for the end of the mullahs' dictatorship. Women lead many protests abroad against a theocratic government accused of killing thousands. Iran's authorities have shut down the Internet and limited phone calls, making it difficult for diaspora communities to learn whether family members are safe. Safarnejad fled Iran seven years ago.
