“The sister of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei issued a public letter on December 7 urging security personnel to defect in support of anti-regime protesters. Badri Hosseini Khamenei stated that Khamenei had failed to heed the Iranian population’s requests and endorsed the Mahsa Amini protest movement, stating “I hope for the people’s victory and the overthrow of [the Islamic Republic].” Hosseini additionally called on the IRGC and other armed forces to join protests “before it is too late.”[30] Hosseini alluded to having privately voiced her grievances to Khamenei.[31] Security personnel arrested Hosseini’s daughter, Farideh Moradkhani, on November 23 for publicly supporting protesters.[32]

Worth repeating
