"We must turn Chaharshanbe Suri into a devil-burning ceremony. Using whatever we can, from pieces of cloth to cardboard, let's make figures of Trump and Netanyahu and burn them in the squares and streets, state television said."
"It said the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) will continue to create a regional Chaharshanbe Suri by firing ballistic missiles and drones at other countries as the US and Israel bomb Tehran and cities across Iran."
"Tehran has ruled out any negotiations with Washington, and says it expects reparations and a guarantee against future attacks if the war is to stop."
During the final day of the Iranian calendar, Iranian authorities are organizing Chaharshanbe Suri celebrations while maintaining security control and sending defiance messages to US and Israeli leadership. The traditional fire festival, celebrated for thousands of years to symbolize light triumphing over darkness, is being repurposed this year. While the general prosecutor's office banned fireworks and explosives citing security concerns, state television urged citizens to create and burn effigies of US President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu in public spaces. Simultaneously, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps continues military operations, firing ballistic missiles and drones. Tehran has rejected negotiations with Washington and demands reparations and guarantees against future attacks as conditions for ending the conflict.
