Iran's morality police lead crackdown on women not wearing hijabs.

A new campaign, called Noor (“light” in Persian), was announced the same day the Iranian regime launched drone attacks against Israel, to crack down on “violations” of the country’s hijab rules, which dictate that all women must cover their heads in public.

Since then there has been a sharp increase in arrests and assaults of women by the morality police.

Videos seen by Sky News also show an increase in the number of women being arrested by female members of the morality police.
