French authorities have prohibited a rally planned by the National Resistance Council of Iran in Paris, scheduled for Saturday. The ban, issued Friday, stems from concerns about potential violence, according to police. The Iranian opposition group intended the demonstration to protest executions within Iran. Organizers condemned the decision as unjustified and criticized the timing of the ban, stating it occurred late Friday. This action follows a period of heightened international tension involving Iran. The cancellation prevents the group from publicly voicing its opposition to the Iranian government on French soil.
