Mahsa Amini, 22, died while she was in the custody of Iran's Morality Police in September last year. More than 500 protesters died in the aftermath - now, a secret network is continuing the fight against the Iranian regime.
A year on from the death of Mahsa Amini, members of an underground network of protesters belonging to a grassroots revolutionary group called"United youth of Iran's neighbourhood" have told Sky News how they are waging a war against the Iranian regime.
The crackdown was brutal. More than 500 people, including 71 children, are thought to have died at the hands of state security forces, while around 20,000 have been arrested, according to the US-based Human Rights Activists News Agency. Seven were executed and several died in prison.Iran tension on protest anniversary

"Our second goal is to educate and prepare those fighting on the streets, to make sure we minimise the casualties." "We don't rely too much on social media, as it's strictly monitored, and that way we have less control."
