Iranian women participated in more protests in recent
days, along with crowds of demonstrators filling the streets of Sanandaj, Karaj
and Zabol. In
Sanandaj, people protested on August 31, against the IRGC's shooting and
killing of Iranian porters. Women participated in this protest in significant
numbers. Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is a branch of Iran's Armed Forces
founded on April 22, 1979 by the order of Khomeini. The
IRGC’s recognized terrorist Quds Force specializes in foreign missions,
providing training, funding and weapons to extremist groups, in the Middle East
and around the world.

According to Iranian resistance’ Women Committee, 2
young women, Niloufar Homafar, 20, and Yasamin Ariani, 23, were arrested on
Vali-e Asr Avenue in downtown Tehran-Iran as they were out in the street to
demand their basic human rights in step with a new wave of protests that was
sweeping cities across the country. Yasamin Ariani was reportedly helping an
elderly woman who had been thrown to the ground when hit by security forces. The
young women boldly posted a message via a mobile phone from inside a State
Security Force van as they were being transferred to jail. An Islamic Revolutionary
Guard Corps general admitted earlier this month that 28 per cent of those
arrested in the anti-regime protests were young women and girls.

According to Kenyan news outlet Daily Nation Aug. 28,
the Iranian regime is bribing Kenyan authorities to free two of its terrorists
affiliated with the notorious Quds Force. The
Quds Force is a recognized terrorist organization that handles operations of
the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) outside of Iran. The story of Ahmad Abdolfathi Mohammad and
Sayed Mansour Mousavi, two Iranian nationals currently under arrest in Kenya,
goes back to June 2012. But as their case is reviewed by the Kenyan Supreme
Court, the highest body of the Kenyan judiciary, a new report by the Interpol
adds a new twist to the whole.
According to Interpol’s report, Iranian operatives are
actively trying to compromise key government employees and the legal system to
release Ahmad Abolfathi and Sayed Mansour Mousavi from Kenyan custody.
According to an affidavit by police sergeant Erick
Opagal, when Ahmad and Sayed Mansour arrived in Nairobi on June 12, 2013, they
traveled to Mombasa without delay to acquire RDX explosives. The two were arrested in June 2013 when they
returned to Nairobi while their accomplice stayed at large. The Kenyan government is afraid that the
Iranian regime and its affiliates will help these two terrorists to escape from
prison. According to Kenyan media, a group of
terrorists have been smuggled in to East Africa to free the two terrorists. After intelligence reports about the escape
plan surfaced, the Kenyan government set its law enforcement forces on full
alert. Kenyan security forces have already obtained recorded tapes of Iranian
nationals that reveal Iranian plans for the escape operation. The Interpol report states that the Quds
Force’s officers operate covertly to spread Iran’s influence far and wide, and
they have been responsible for numerous terrorist attacks and attempted attacks
globally.
