16-year-old Iranian woman beaten to death for not singing anthem praising supreme leader
A 16-year-old Iranian girl died after security forces beat her in her classroom for refusing to sing an anthem praising Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
In addition to the teenager, identified by the media as Asra Panahi, other students also declined to praise Khamenei with the song, but there are no other deaths besides that of the young woman.
The incident occurred last week in the northwestern city of Ardabil, when security forces raided Shaheed Girls High School, according to the Hindustan Times.
“Hey Colonel! Today it’s our daughter’s turn, tomorrow it will be your daughter’s. This will happen to you too,” an Iranian man is heard shouting in a video of Saturday protests in Ardabil over the killing of a schoolgirl named Asra Panahi during a raid on a high school. pic.twitter.com/Uh476AUVTP

Asra Panahi reportedly died from injuries sustained at a local hospital, citing the Coordinating Council of Iranian Professional Teachers' Associations.
Asra Panahi's death comes at a critical time when Iran is witnessing anti-government protests that began more than a month ago.
In Iran, women protested against the regime following the death in custody of 22-year-old Mahsa Amin. Mahsa Amini was arrested by the notorious Iranian deputy team for not wearing the hijab.

A High School in Ardabil, city, forced students to join a pro regime rally. Students refused and instead they chanted: “Women Life Freedom”.
That’s why they got beaten up. #MahsaAmini pic.twitter.com/zz5o257c0G
