Thousands of people poured into the streets of Mahsa Amini's hometown Wednesday and marched to her grave. Iranian security forces responded - as they have throughout the course of the nationwide protests inspired by her death - with violence and arrests.
The gathering in Saqez, in Iran's western Kurdistan region, marked the 40th day since Amini's death in the custody of Iran's "morality police," a traditional moment of remembrance in Islam. As the night wore on, demonstrators came out in other cities, as they have every day since mid-September.
