Reza Pahlavi, the exiled son of Iran's last shah, called for a Global Week of Action for a Free Iran timed to the regime's planned burial of former supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The proposed week of demonstrations will also mark six months since the start of protests against the regime.
Background on the protests Pahlavi described the crackdown on those demonstrations as a massacre. The burial and the protest anniversary fall within days of each other, creating a single window for coordinated actions inside and outside Iran. Pahlavi made the announcement from Berlin, where he appeared at a press conference on April 23, 2026.
