Political prisoner and labor activist, Mahmoud Salehi Iran, November 13, 2017  - Iran regime judiciary and security authorities have rejected the transfer of political prisoner and labor activist Mahmoud Salehi to receive proper medical care on his own expense at a hospital outside prison. Doctors have insisted that this labor activist should be transferred to a more accessible hospital soon due to acute cardiac, kidney and diabetes problems. According to state-run ILNA news agency, quoting Mr. Salehi's family, his doctor recommended that this labor activist should be transferred to a hospital in Tehran, Tabriz, or Orumiyeh for continued treatment of his heart.

Iranian women's struggle on the eve of International Women's Day The 20 th  century was the era of both the formation and escalation of women’s liberation movements in course of realizing women’s equal rights in all of its aspects, to put an end to gender discrimination. It was for these struggles that despite major hurdles on its way, women’s equality could take steps forward. From the 1908 strike of women workers of a textile factory in New York, where women protested against working conditions, which turned to a symbolic day for women’s equality movement, up to now, a long path has been paved.
