Brussels: Europe and the Arabs
A statement by the Secretariat of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, a copy of which we received today, said that in response to the repression practiced by the regime during the uprising in Khorasan, the youth of the uprising in the city of Mashhad targeted at ten in the evening on Wednesday, October 5, the headquarters of the 8th Basij Command of the Guards in Mashhad.
 This headquarters, as one of the twelve bases of the well-known Guard Corps, the Imam Reza Corps, in the city of Mashhad, the center of the Razavi Khorasan Province, works to practice repression and confront the youth of the uprising and the protesting demonstrators.
And in another statement issued yesterday evening, on the outcome of the twenty-second day of protests, it included more than 170 cities and more than 400 deaths, 138 of which were identified by the  Mojahedin khalq Organization and the arrests: more than 20,000
According to the statement,
As the Iranian people's uprising against religious dictatorship continues into its fourth week, the courage, anger and sheer defiance of Iran's young generation shook the political spectrum inside Iran and around the world. The demonstrators' slogans and their bold calls for a radical change of the regime were expressed.
The regime has launched a complete blackout on the internet and launched a brutal and fruitless crackdown with young Iranians and the general population fighting to protect their lives and loved ones. It was also stated in the statement
The "moderates" in Iran, who have always been considered a safety valve for the velayat-e faqih regime, have been sidelined during the current crisis, and completely forgotten as neither the regime's hardliners nor the protesters consider them a serious force. Their spokesman for the Reform Front, Abolfazl Shakouri Rad, lamented that the bipolar situation had crystallized in Iran and excluded his faction from the political struggle led by the uprising to change the regime.
“Reformers can do nothing but sit on the sidelines and watch what is going on,” he said in an interview with the sympathetic Ferraro website, adding that “the two main players in the bipolar game are fighting at the expense of society. In the meantime, we reformists do not know what will happen, And what will the future look like… The younger generation no longer believes in us and because of that we have been marginalized in Iran.”
