The death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has sparked celebrations from his critics as women show their skin and drink to his demise.
Officially, the country is in a five-day period of mourning, but opponents of the regime have taken to social media to share their joy at Raisi’s passing, while others set off fireworks in the streets.
Raisi was seen as a frontrunner to succeed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei but was killed alongside Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian in a helicopter crash on Sunday following a visit to Azerbaijan.
The former president was a staunch supporter of cracking down on dissent in Iran and supported the country’s security services throughout his time in office, including in the aftermath of the death of Mahsa Amini.
