Jaras: Sporadic clashes continue in Valiasr Square.



Jaras: Sporadic clashes continue in Valiasr Square.

According to a Jaras reporter, Special Guard forces have positioned themselves in Valiasr Square and are attacking protestors who have gathered in small groups.

Eye witnesses are reporting widespread arrests and some claim dozens of people have been arrested.

It is noteworthy that Special Guard and military forces have appeared in Tehran carrying arms. Special armed vehicles have been brought to Tehran from Karaj (Tehran’s suburb) this morning.

This is the first time since “bloody Saturday” (June 20th), the day after Ayatollah Khamenei’s speech [threatening protesters in Friday prayer’s sermon] that these armed vehicles are seen in Tehran.
