WHAT HAPPENED

Large numbers of Iranian women are reportedly refusing to comply with mandatory veiling rules four years after Mahsa Amini's death. The authorities are described as having lost control of the scale of the resistance.

SO WHAT?

Widespread civil disobedience could intensify Iran's internal political confrontation and lead to further repression.
