Today, on the streets of Tehran, at 4 pm sharp, people started to congregate along routes that had been previously announced.

Their eyes communicated with each other, expressions of familiarity, sympathy, and solidarity that today we shall make history together, yet once more. Security forces, in large numbers and from early hours, were visible on the streets. They were vigilantly preventing any gatherings from forming.

But along the intersections of Kaveh Street — at Jamalzadeh Street and from Tohid Circle to Navab — and on Vesal Street as well as along Keshavarz Boulevard, groups of three to four hundred protestors would occasionally manage to form, chanting slogans and holding up their V-shaped fingers.
