After Huda Kattan, founder of the "Huda Beauty" cosmetics brand, published an image from a pro-Islamic Republic rally, a wave of anger erupted among Iranians. Dozens of bloggers and thousands of ordinary users in a grassroots campaign threw away her products and called for boycotting her brand. Huda Kattan apologized after facing these reactions, but the boycott wave of her products continues. @ VahidOOnLine I was searching for her name when I came across this news from a few months ago: TikTok removed a video by Huda Kattan, Iraqi-American entrepreneur, beauty influencer and manager of Huda Beauty brand, for "spreading anti-Israeli conspiracy theories." @ VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

🔸 A source close to the family of Rasoul Salehi, who was arrested during the suppression of protests in Yazdanshahr, says he faces the risk of a death sentence. According to this source, Mr. Salehi, after the killing of a teenager named Farshid Mokhtari during the January 2nd protests in Yazdanshahr, appeared with a group of people in front of the Najafabad courthouse and gave judicial authorities 24 hours to release the detained teenagers and young people. In a video published on social media, he had warned that if the detainees were not released, a protest gathering would be held in Yazdanshahr. @ VahidHeadline 🔸 The news website Axios reported on Thursday that Donald Trump's administration in Washington is hosting "senior defense and intelligence" officials from Israel and Saudi Arabia this week, with the topic of discussions being how to deal with the Islamic Republic. According to Axios, while the Israelis have gone to Washington to inform America about possible targets inside Iranian territory, Saudi officials still believe that the path to diplomacy is open and negotiation should still be given a chance. @ VahidHeadline 🔸 The Speaker of Iran's Islamic Consultative Assembly, in an interview with CNN, once again rejected negotiations with the United States, arguing that the American president "only wants to impose his will on others." @ VahidHeadline 🔸 The Deputy Minister of Nursing at the Ministry of Health asked those injured in recent protests not to be afraid and to visit medical centers for treatment. Abbas Ebadi said on Thursday, January 30th, in an interview with Ilna news agency: "If treatment is delayed, their wounds may become infected and a problem that could be solved with simple treatment could lead to complex surgeries and unwanted complications." However, he made no reference to the reason for the injured's fear of going to hospitals. This comes while multiple reports have been published about security forces attacking hospitals, beating patients under treatment, and kidnapping them. @ VahidHeadline 🔸 Mir-Hossein Mousavi, one of the leaders of the Green Movement, on Thursday, January 30th, called the brutal and bloody suppression of this January's protests "a great betrayal and crime against the people" and demanded a constitutional referendum and government change in Iran without foreign interference. In a statement, he wrote: "In what language should the people say that they don't want this system and don't believe your lies. Enough already. The game is over... You have no solution for any of the country's crises, and the nation has no choice but to protest again until achieving results. And you will not be able to repeat the tragedy of January 18th and 19th." The former Prime Minister of the Islamic Republic reminded that "military and police forces will sooner or later, and probably sooner" no longer be willing to suppress protesters and added: "Put down your guns and step aside from power so that the nation can lead this land to freedom and prosperity." @ VahidHeadline 🔸 The US Department of Justice announced that "Carlisle Rivera," nicknamed "Pop," was sentenced to 15 years in prison by a New York federal court for participating in an "assassination for hire" plot ordered by the Iranian government to assassinate Masih Alinejad, journalist and civil activist. @ VahidHeadline 🔸 HRANA news agency, based on its latest aggregate data on the 32nd day since the start of protests, announced that the number of confirmed deaths has reached 6,373 people. According to this report published Thursday, January 30th, of this number, 5,993 are protesters, 113 are children under 18 years old, 214 are government-affiliated forces, and 53 are non-protesters/civilians. HRANA has also reported the number of casualties under investigation as 17,091 people. According to this report, the total number of detained protesters has reached 42,486 people. The number of injured with severe injuries is 11,018 people, the number of forced confessions broadcast is 270 cases, and the number summoned to security institutions is more than 11,000 people. The Human Rights Activists News Agency also wrote that the total recorded protest events were 658 cases in 202 cities and 31 provinces. Due to lack of access inside Iran because of internet cuts and government pressure on families of the killed, accurate announcement of the death toll faces difficulties. Human rights organizations predict that tens of thousands may have been killed during the violent suppression of protesters in Iran.
