This major campaign on the occasion of the new academic year in Iran was carried out in educational centers and universities, with the slogan, "down with Khatami, down with Khamenei, hail to Rajavi."
These activities coincided with the Assembly of Experts' election sham and were conducted despite heavy security measures by the clerical regime, including extensive inspections on the streets and putting the State Security Force, the Revolutionary Guards Corps and Intelligence Ministry agents on alert. The Resistance's activities represented a 120% increase relative to the same period last year, when Mojahedin's activities covered 238 cities.
Mojahedin's supporters distributed audio and video tapes of messages by the leadership of the Iranian Resistance on the new academic year and on the need to boycott the Assembly of Experts elections.
They also posted large portraits of the Iranian Resistance's President-elect Maryam Rajavi and the Resistance's Leader Massoud Rajavi, emblems of the National Liberation Army and the Mojahedin Organization in major squares and busy streets. The Resistance units also distributed hundreds of thousands of flyers and brochures in educational centers, universities, public roads and residential areas in different cities. These flyers carried photographs of, and messages by, the Resistance's leadership as well as their calls on youths to join the National Liberation Army.
The number of social protests and strikes registered during October rose to 43, showing a three fold rise in the number of protests in the first seven months of this year relative to the same period last year.
