Iran's President Raisi says hijab is the law as women face ‘yoghurt attack'
President Ebrahim Raisi has said that the hijab is 'a legal matter' in Iran after a viral video appeared to show a man throwing yoghurt at two uncovered women in a shop near a holy Shia Muslim city.
Growing numbers of women have defied authorities by discarding their veils after nationwide protests that followed the death in September of a 22-year-old Iranian Kurdish woman in the custody of the morality police for allegedly violating hijab rules. Security forces violently cracked down on the protests.
