Mother of Mahsa Amini calls Iran election pointless as millions boycott vote in protest at regime
Mozhgan Eftekhari, mother of Mahsa Amini, whose death in police custody sparked mass protests in Iran, has called the country's election pointless. Millions are expected to boycott the election to show discontent with the Islamic regime. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei urged Iranians to vote, but many citizens, disillusioned with the regime, plan to abstain as a message of rejection. Turnout in Tehran is expected to be significantly lower than previous elections. The US Department of State expressed skepticism about the elections being free and fair.
