Iranians rallied in support of the Islamic Republic, opposing chaos that has been spiraling under the pretense of solidarity with Mahsa Amini's family following her death.

In parallel, the Iranian army commented on the protests and riots that took place in several regions in light of young woman Mahsa Amini's death, saying that "these measures resulting from despair are a malicious strategy of the enemies, aimed to weaken the status of the Islamic regime and the unity of the people."

Another clip sent by a friend live from #Tehran, Enghelab Square. The number of people who have rallied in support of Islamic Republic and against rioters is tremendous. Today #Iran stands for the Islamic values and against these rioters.#IranProtests2022 pic.twitter.com/dINIEXjQKL

The army affirmed its readiness to confront "the various plots hatched by the enemies."

In turn, the leadership of the Internal Security Forces in the northern province of Gilan announced that "211 rioters have been arrested," adding that they would be referred to the competent judiciary.

The authorities revealed the confiscation of "firearms and blade weapons that were in the possession of the rioters."

Earlier today, Javad Hamidi, mayor of Bojnord Municipality in North Khorasan Province, eastern Iran, said that "a group of rioters attacked Bojnord city center last Wednesday, causing financial damage to public property."

For its part, the ISNA news agency quoted the governor of the city of Malayer in Hamedan province, western Iran, as saying that "69 rioters were arrested on Thursday for having in their possession a number of firearms, white weapons, and explosives."

IRNA had reported two days ago that four police officers were injured and a police assistant died of his wounds sustained on Tuesday in the southern city of Shiraz, following protests and clashes with the police.

In response to the death of the Iranian girl, Mahsa Amini, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi called her family on Thursday and confirmed that he had ordered a thorough investigation into the incident.

"Your daughter is like my own daughter, and I feel that this incident happened to one of my loved ones. Please accept my condolences," Raisi told Amini's family.

A few days ago, the Iranian police published a video clip captured by surveillance cameras documenting the last moments of the young woman, Amini, at the police station. The Tehran police said the footage proves that 22-year-old Amini was not subjected to any violence or physical abuse. 

Several protests took place after Amini's death, which caused various casualties among civilians and police.
