Iranians at a rally in Tehran say the United States and Israeli regime are “directly” responsible for the blood of those who lost their lives during the recent foreign-backed riots in the country.

In their final statement on Monday, the participants called on Iranian officials to take immediate steps to improve the living conditions and firmly counter economic corruption.

They said the spiteful enemies of Iran, especially the criminal US and child-killing Israeli regime, used their organized mercenaries to destroy public and private property, violate Islamic sanctities, and target the “holy unity” of the Iranian nation to prepare the ground for foreign interference.

They hailed the vigilance of the noble Iranian nation and security forces and expressed their hatred toward the terrorist and criminal acts.

The participants in the nationwide rallies chanted slogans and renewed their support for Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.

They condemned the armed terrorists and mercenaries for desecrating he holy Qur’an, setting mosques, medical centers, and public properties on fire, and killing civilians. They also called on the judiciary to severely punish the American-Zionist perpetrators.

The participants also slammed any foreign interference in Iran’s affairs, as well as remarks by US President Donald Trump and European countries in support of the recent riots.

The statement emphasized the need to respond properly to the rightful demands of the Iranian people.
