Answer

The Mahsa Amini protests were protests that occurred in Iran in February 2020. They were sparked by the arrest of the singer Mahsa Amini, who had been arrested on charges of spreading propaganda against the state. The protests were also connected with the re-arrest of the human rights activist Hossein Ronaghi, who had been arrested in 2013 on charges of spying for the United States.
