#730report So pathetic your report on Strait of Hormuz tonight. Blamed Iran, but failed to mention Trump US decision to blockade the Strait. Credibility out the window.

17 Australians are preparing to sail toward the Gaza Strip as part of the Global Sumud Flotilla, a maritime mission involving about 100 vessels. The flotilla aims to challenge Israel’s naval blockade while delivering roughly 500 tonnes of humanitarian assistance to the territory.

Welcoming the ceasefire and expressing hope that it will lead to the end of the war and pave the way for peace and freedom. maryam-rajavi.com/en/welcoming-c…

At dawn today, Vahid Bani Amerian and Abolhassan Montazer were hanged in Ghezel Hesar Prison, Karaj. The two heroic members of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) have now joined their comrades who laid down their lives in the struggle for freedom, including Mohammad Taghavi, Akbar Daneshvar Kar, Babak Alipour, and Pouya Ghobadi. The ruling religious dictatorship in Iran has once again shed the blood of two of the Iranian people’s most courageous sons, exposing its fear and desperation in the face of organized opposition, the PMOI/MEK and the Liberation Army. Vahid Bani Amerian was a fearless commander of Resistance Units, consistently on the front lines of confrontation with the inhuman enemy, both in resistance activities and during his imprisonment. Abolhassan Montazer, a former political prisoner under the Shah, spent nearly 11 years in prison after the 1980s. He was regarded as a steadfast figure and a source of support for fellow political prisoners. The ruling mullahs, by executing steadfast opposition members --Vahid Bani Amerian, Abolhassan Montazer, Mohammad Taghavi, Akbar Daneshvarkar, Babak Alipour, and Pouya Ghobadi-- vainly attempts to delay their inevitable downfall. Yet these unjustly shed lives will not silence dissent. Instead, they deepen public outrage and strengthen the resolve of freedom fighters, amplifying both anger and determination in the face of repression. These fallen heroes are teachers of resilience, integrity, and sacrifice, whose stories will resonate with a younger generation that continues to take part in waves of protests and uprisings. Among them are young people such as Amirhossein Hatami, Saleh Mohammadi, Mehdi Ghasemi, and Saeed Davoudi, who were executed in recent weeks by the clerical regime, and joined the galaxy of fallen freedom fighters. Once again, I call for a special session of the United Nations to address the ongoing executions of political prisoners in Iran and to take immediate, practical measures to help prevent further loss of life. There is an urgent need for international attention to the situation of PMOI members and other political prisoners, as well as detained rebellious youth across the country who are facing execution.

Iran Regime’s Latest Killing Spree of Dissidents Online Briefing ‌‌ by Mohammad Mohaddessin, NCRI’s Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Wednesday, April 1, 2026, 9:00 EDT, 3:00 PM CEST, 2:00 PM Uk Time twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

.@Maryam_Rajavi 's 10-Point Plan for Iran 's future appeared in the NY Times today. As NCRI President-elect, she envisions a democratic republic: full freedoms, gender equality, separation of religion/state, ethnic autonomy, non-nuclear Iran. Blueprint for real change! #FreeIran

I warn in an interview with @ForeignPolicy that thousands of trapped prisoners face death in Iran’s prisons. Refusing to release prisoners during wartime conditions constitutes a crime against humanity. @IranHrm has been documenting the crisis. @uninvhrc foreignpolicy.com/2026/03/16/ira…

@Mohaddessin I emphasized a simple reality: Foreign war cannot overthrow #Iran’s regime. Only a popular uprising backed by organized resistance can bring democratic change.

@Mohaddessin Online meeting with U.S.@SenThomTillis On the current crisis in #Iran and the Middle East #OurChoiceMaryamRajavi x.com/Maryam_Rajavi/…

@Mohaddessin @Iranfile Regime change in Iran, by the people of Iran #NCRIAlternative

@Mohaddessin Iran’s freedom will not come from foreign war, but from the uprising of its people and the organized resistance. #No2ShahNo2Mullah #NCRIAlternative

@Mohaddessin History shows that war from outside cannot bring democracy. The real battle is between the Iranian people and the ruling religious dictatorship. Support the Iranian people’s struggle for freedom and a democratic Iran #NCRIAlternative #OurChoiceMaryamRajavi #FreeIran10PointPlan

The security of the Middle East, its people, its environment, and the world’s energy routes must not become the victim of endless war. Experience has shown that foreign wars alone do not bring freedom to Iran. The real counterpart to the regime is the Iranian people—especially the courageous youth—and their organized resistance. It is time for the United States and the international community to engage seriously with Mr. Mohammad Mohaddessin and the NCRI to explore a practical and responsible path forward—one that empowers the Iranian people to bring democratic change themselves. #FreeIran10PointsPlan #No2ShahNo2Mullah #NCRIAlternative #OurChoiceMaryamRajavi @UMVU14 @Reuters @BILD @anderssamuelsen @welt @Statsmin @slagelsemedia @vafodk @berlingske @AFP @SaforaSM @AP @moderaterne_dk @dkpol @venstredk @Venstre @ZDF @DanishMFA @GermanyDiplo @CanadaFP @SweMFA @NorwayMFA @BelgiumMFA @francediplo

President-elected @Maryam_Rajavi, leader of the resistance in exile, interviewed by @Corriere “A historic moment. Now the regime can only be overthrown through our struggle.” corriere.it/native/26_marz… Maryam Rajavi—president of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), living in exile in Paris—what are your thoughts on Mojtaba Khamenei? “The regime has become a hereditary monarchy. It is yet another theft of the sovereignty of the Republic of Iran, proving that a viper can never become a dove. Mojtaba, along with his father, has been one of the main architects of repression, the export of fundamentalism and terrorism, and the plundering of the nation’s wealth.” And what do you think of war? “Although an external war could deal heavy blows to the regime, its overthrow and real change are possible only through the people and an organized resistance. There is no need for external intervention.” What does this moment mean for Iranians? “A historic battle is being fought in Iran: on one side, the people and a widespread, organized resistance; on the other, the ruling theocracy. The Iranian people are demanding this change. The world saw proof of this in January, when the uprising erupted in hundreds of cities and the voices of the people resounded as a collective cry for freedom and democracy.” And for you? “For the Resistance, the mullahs’ regime has entered its final phase. On February 28, the NCRI announced the formation of a provisional government, based on the ten-point plan outlined for the transfer of sovereignty to the Iranian people.” What can Iranians do to overthrow the regime? “The people, and in particular the younger generation, have found the way. By joining the resistance units or supporting their activities and battles, they are bringing this struggle closer to victory. The fighters of the People’s Mojahedin Organization, taking on extremely high risks, are carrying out direct actions against the centers of repression.” Meaning? “A significant incident occurred on February 23, when 250 fighters attacked Khamenei’s headquarters. As a result of that operation, about 100 Mojahedin members were killed or arrested, while 150 returned to their bases.” Don’t you see a peaceful revolution? “The bloody tyranny in power has left no room for nonviolent struggle. We saw this again in January 2026.” Many Iranians do not trust the People’s Mojahedin because of the past. “The People’s Mojahedin Organization has paid the highest price in the struggle for democracy. One of the heaviest costs has been the vast demonization campaign orchestrated by the regime. When the regime failed to eliminate the Resistance through massacres and assassinations—killing over 100,000 members—it resorted to demonization, investing billions of dollars.” How can you prove that? “Analyses by Western researchers, academics, and former high-ranking officials indicate that the source of all the allegations points back to the mullahs. Reports from the intelligence services of several European countries specify that the main target of the regime’s intelligence activities abroad is the Mojahedin, the CNRI.” How important is religion in your vision for the country? “The fourth point of our Ten-Point Plan emphasizes the principle of separation of religion and state, as well as freedom of religion and belief. It states: ‘No to compulsory veiling, no to compulsory religion, no to compulsory government.’” Reza Pahlavi is also positioning himself for the transition. “The people did not sacrifice so many lives to go from the current regime back to the one of the past. The Shah’s son not only fails to distance himself from his father’s dictatorship, but claims its legacy.” @FratellidItalia @ecrgroup @VidalQuadras @STRUANSTEVENSON @paulocasaca1 @isjcommittee @Mohaddessin @DowlatNowrouzi @GlobalCRL @theglobalnewsit @iran_policy

Greens introduce bill to require Parliament to vote before sending Australians to war “We cannot allow a handful of the executives behind closed doors to take us to war, endangering civilians and putting Australian lives at risk" #auspol #warpowers greens.org.au/news/media-rel…

Should Aust get involved in the Middle East again? Surely any decision to send the ADF into this war should go to parliament to be debated and voted on. #warpowers #auspol abc.net.au/news/2026-03-0…
