Thousands of Iranian gathered in streets of IRAN's big cities such as Shiraz, Tehran, Mashad, Ahwaz, Tabriz, Isfahan, Zahedan, ... to participate in Anti Regime demonstration

They were chanting "Death to Dictators" – "Death to Khamenei" – "Russia Embassy, Spying House". Police clashed with hundreds of protesters & opened fire on protesters at Haft-e Tir square in Tehran . Basij Militia, plainclothes and riot police used batons & tears gas at the crowd to disperse them, some witness report they also use nerve gas

Iranian show that they do not agree with Obama policy with Islamic Regime by chanting Obama Obama decide, you are with us or them?

Four Tehran's subway stations were closed near Haft e Tir Square to prohibit gathering people

Witness report more than 1000 injured & nearly 200 arrested some reports said between 5 to 10 killed

Thanks for the post, trying to determine where you got the numbers for the people injured and whether you have any confirmation of the killings which you mentioned in another story
