Several protest rallies were held in various parts of Iran, from Qeshm in the south, to Zanjan and Hamadan in the north, on Monday night.

"Death to the dictator" was heard on Qeshm Island. Zanjan protesters also chanted "Seyyed Ali (Khamenei) will be toppled this year".

In Hamadan, protesters chanted "This is the final battle, Pahlavi will return," referring to Iranian exiled prince, Reza Pahlavi, whose father's monarchy was toppled by the Islamic Republic in 1979.
