Demonstrators in Los Gatos call for regime change in Iran

Around a hundred people gathered on the lawn next to Los Gatos Library on Saturday to recognize the deaths of protesters in Iran and call on the U.S. to support a revolution in the country.

Protests sprang up all over Iran in December and January, largely fueled by an unaffordability crisis driven by inflation and the depreciation of the country’s currency. Many of the protesters called for a regime change. Iran is an Islamic republic with an Islam-based, theocratic constitution following the 1979 revolution.
