ALBAWABA - Amid its continued strict rules against women, Iran has recently announced opening new centers called the "City of Hijab" in the capital Tehran, Isfahan and other cities.
The "City of Hijab" centers were declared by Iran's head Basij, trade, merchants unions, Gholamreza Hassanpour, in Tehran and Isfahan in the near future.
The upcoming "City of Hijab" centers aim to introduce new styles and products of hijabs in Tehran and Isfahan as well as other cities in Iran.
Months after the death of Mahsa Amini triggered massive protests across Iran as women demonstrated against compulsory hijab rules in the Islamic Republic, many women are still disobeying the veil rules in Iran as they come out to the street without a headscarf.
Mahsa Amini, 22, died in the custody of Iran's morality police on Sept. 16, 2022, pushing women and rights activists to hit the streets against the lack of women's freedom in the country. Protesters burnt hijabs and cut their hair to demonstrate the compulsory hijab rule.
However, Iran's morality police are still working to detect and punish all women who appear in public without their hijabs with the latest move was that the Iranian government placed smart cameras across the streets to identify hijab violators.
