Original Note:
Under Khamenei, women's rights in Iran have faced severe restrictions. The mandatory hijab law, enforced by the morality police, limits personal freedom. Women face harsh penalties, including physical violence, for defying dress codes. Independence is heavily curtailed. https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/06/26/unveiling-resistance-struggle-womens-rights-iran https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2024/nov/14/iran-announces-treatment-clinic-for-women-who-defy-strict-hijab-laws https://www.ohchr.org/en/press-releases/2024/03/iran-institutional-discrimination-against-women-and-girls-enabled-human
