Iranian Teen Dies After Clash with Security Forces Over Hijab

An Iranian teenage girl, Armita Geravand, who was injured on Tehran's Metro while not wearing a headscarf, has died after being in a coma for weeks. The circumstances surrounding her injury remain unclear, but activists abroad allege she may have been pushed or attacked for not wearing the hijab. Geravand's death threatens to reignite popular anger and protests against Iran's mandatory headscarf law. The incident comes a year after the death of Mahsa Amini, which sparked nationwide protests. Iran's state-run media reported Geravand's death without mentioning the wider unrest surrounding the headscarf law.
