The Iranian regime is trying to prevent the celebration of Cyrus the Great.
The Iranian regime prevents the people from gathering at Pasargad in the province of Farsia to commemorate the former Parsonian king, Cyrus the Great, according to information to the FFFI on Monday.



The regime has been blocked by all roads leading to Pasargad and stationed the police, security forces and revolution guards in the area and nearby towns for several days back.

These "security measures" are a desperate attempt of the regime to stop the people from getting to Pasargad for the popular celebration of Cyrus the Great. Earlier celebrations have often been transformed into major regime-critical protests with slogans against the clergy as a whole.

Thousands of people have, however, defied the regime's security measures and repressive security agencies. Many people try to get on foot while the blockages of the regime have caused long road jams that interfere with traffic throughout the province of Fathers. People come from all over Iran and not just the province of Fathers or nearby cities.

There are reports of possible clashes and arbitrary arrests because the regime's security forces are trying to stop the people at all costs. Hospitals and health care centers in the area have been placed in the highest preparedness to receive the injured, telling sources in the area of ​​FFFI who want to be anonymous.

The birthday of Kyros the Big Brother in Iran is celebrated according to tradition, the seventh Aban, the eighth month in the Persian calendar, which coincides with Monday 29 October. The former big king is a popular and respected historical figure in Iran because he was the founder of the Persian Empire. He is also considered to have introduced humanity's first declaration of human rights as a regent. The clergy has banned tribute of Cyrus the Great since the ayatollas surrendered the power of Iran 39 years ago. The people therefore see the celebration of his birthday as a protest against the regime and an opportunity to express their dissatisfaction with the unity of the priesthood.

Pasargad is an ancient city of Persia and the first capital of the Akemenians (556 BC-330 BC). Together with its most important monument, Cyrus den store's tomb, the site is a world heritage site since 2004.
