Iran-Hijab
Veiled Iranian women are visiting the Hijab and Chastity fair at the Imam Khomeini Grand Mosque in downtown Tehran, Iran, on March 28, 2024. Amir Hossein Bankipour, a Member of the Iranian Parliament from Isfahan and a member of the Cultural Commission, said on the ''Ofogh TV program'' that after the Nowruz holidays, women who do not wear a hijab will not be fined by the police. Instead, 30,000,000 Rials (approximately 49 USD) will be automatically deducted from their personal bank accounts. (Photo by Morteza Nikoubazl/NurPhoto)
