As part of the ongoing crackdown against women in Iran, authorities have now targeted social media accounts they deem "inappropriate."
Kyomars Azizi, police commander of western Tehran province, stated they monitored social media and identified 21 Instagram pages "publishing inappropriate images and breaking norms."
These pages, with large followings, were blocked, and legal action was taken against their moderators.
Azizi emphasized ongoing police monitoring of online activity, warning people of legal consequences for "crimes committed in cyberspace."
Since April 13, Iran's law enforcement agencies have intensified the enforcement of hijab regulations under the national action plan "Noor."
The arrests of women and the use of force against them for perceived violation of mandatory dress codes have been reported from across the country.
Users across social networks are participating in a spontaneous campaign using the hashtag "war against women" to document their experiences and observations regarding the government's crackdown on the opponents of mandatory hijab.
Reports have surfaced detailing the application of repressive tactics, particularly on female students in various universities.
Moreover, pressure has risen on civil activists, political dissenters, women political prisoners, and cultural figures.
