There were demonstrations in Bern and Zurich on Saturday against the Iranian regime.

There’s been unrest in Iran since the death of Mahsa Amini - a 22-year-old woman who’d been detained by the country’s morality police for allegedly not wearing a headdress correctly. 

In Bern, several hundred gathered on the Bundesplatz and in Zurich a similar number met. 

It’s the third weekend in a row there have been anti-Iranian protests. While the initial anger followed the death of Mahsa – the focus has widened to a general discontent of the Islamic regime in the country.

The government has condemned the use of force against protestors in Iran and is calling for restraint.
