On 10th January 2019, teachers in different cities in Iran held assemblies in front of the offices of the Ministry of Education and protested for their rights and demands.
Teachers in the cities of Ardebil, Tabriz, Yazd and Kermanshah protested against poverty and lack of access to free healthcare and free education.
The teachers also held banners demanding the release of jailed teachers.
Teachers in Kermanshah, who haven’t been paid for two months, chanted “The government betrays and the Islamic Majles (parliament) supports it” and raised their objections to widespread embezzlement.
On 9th January 2019, teachers in Isfahan held a similar protest. Even the heavy presence of armed forces didn’t stop the protesting teachers.
