Iran: security forces fire teargas at mourners for Nika Shakarami
Iranian security forces opened fire on mourners who had gathered to pay tribute to Nika Shakarami, a teenage protester who died in September. People can be seen in the footage fleeing and throwing stones as police appear to shoot teargas at them. The crowd chanted anti-government slogans at the ceremony.
Shakarami, 16, died in Tehran early on during the protest movement after she was filmed burning a hijab. She went missing on 20 September and was found dead a day later. Iranian officials said she killed herself. Close family members were also at the ceremony, where they blamed the government for her death.
The clash came a day after people gathered for a separate ceremony in the city of Saqqez to mark 40 days since the death of Mahsa Amini, which triggered another round of protests through the night.
