In addition to the local protests taking place despite heavy security in Iran, from London to Toronto, Iranians abroad join global protests on the anniversary of Mahsa Amini's death.

22-year-old Amini died a few days after her arrest by police for allegedly violating the dress code for women in force shortly after the 1979 Iranian Revolution. Her family says she died from a blow to the head but this is disputed by Iranian authorities. Official news agency IRNA denied the reports of the father's brief detention, and later said security forces had foiled an assassination attempt against him.
Campaigners say the authorities have renewed their crackdown in the runup to the anniversary, putting pressure on relatives of those killed in the protests in a bid to stop them speaking out.
