- Iran's National Security Chief and Adviser to Supreme Leader, Ali Shamkhani, has paid official visits to the families of some of those killed during November protest riots, according to Iranian news agencies. The official number of people killed during the riots, by some accounts exceeding 1000, is still not released but it is confirmed that among the casualties are teenagers, students, laborers, war veterans and military officers from poor neighborhoods. Shamkhani, however, blamed 85% of casualties in the city of Shahriar on foreign forces.
- Separately, Parvaneh Salahshoori, an outspoken female MP who has decided not to run again in the upcoming elections, condemned "the out of control tyranny of a minority" in a fiery statement heckled by pro-Leader conservative male MPs. Salahshoori stated: "When we have had several popular movements, all suppressed, and when we impose on our youth a lifestyle they did not choose, and when an out-of-control tyrannical minority is running our corrupted financial and political system with impunity, and when we have numerous power circles paralyzing our parliament, democracy is meaningless.. The late founder of revolution Ayatollah Khomeini had warned the previous regime of not imposing their will on a new generation but we are just doing the same now.. We are accountable for the blood of protesters... I cannot run again in good conscience ..."
