Embassies of Resistance: Iranian Students Rise for Palestine

Embassies of Resistance: Tens of Thousands of Iranian Students Support the People of Palestine

One of the false claims about the Iranian people is that Iranian teenagers have lost their Islamic and religious sentiments and no longer believe in the anti-imperialist ideals of the Islamic Republic of Iran—a narrative shaped by the heavy censorship of social media platforms over the past decade.

A clear sign of the falsehood of this claim is the unprecedented and widespread support of Iranian students for Palestinian youth, and their strong condemnation of the Zionist regime’s inhumane actions and genocidal crimes. This was manifested in a campaign called Embassies of Resistance, launched across Iran, where students expressed solidarity with Palestine through creative school-based initiatives, voicing their anti-Zionist and anti-imperialist sentiments.

In the second half of 2024, at least 2,000 schools across Iran joined this campaign, and hundreds of thousands of students raised their voices in support of resistance ideals.

Moreover, students from other countries also joined their Iranian peers, expressing solidarity with the Palestinian people and denouncing the imperialist and criminal policies of the Zionist regime.
