The protests began after 22-year-old Mehsa Amini was killed by morality police for wearing a hijab "inappropriately". Iranians started gathering on the streets and on the Internet, demanding justice for Amini and the abolition of the mandatory hijab for women. A lot of women took off their hijabs or cut their hair in public, many protesters were injured and some were killed.  Like many people, I think forcing women or anyone to hide their bodies and wear the obligatory hijab should never happen.
