00:04This is what expression of solidarity looks like in Iran. Every night since the war, people have been gathering over
00:13here at the Enkhalab Square, which is also known as the Enkhalab or the Revolution Square.
00:19Women, men, children, every night coming to the square expressing solidarity. This is only a part of what is happening
00:30in Iran. It happens across Iran but these are exclusive visuals that we are bringing to you on India today
00:37about solidarity, about unity, about a country standing together at a time of war.
00:45With which is journalist Satya Rao today in Tehran at Enkhalab Square. This is Geeta Mohan reporting for India Today.
00:55This flag is a sign of patriotism and you're seeing it flutter across Tehran, across Enkhalab Square. You're seeing a
01:06lot of people over here who come not just from Tehran.
01:10And there are many who have come from various other parts of Tehran. We met a woman who's been here
01:15for 60 days. She hasn't left this place barring going every three days to change and then come back.
01:21But then what's interesting about this square is that it has made a space for everyone and everything. There are
01:29children over here. If I could ask Satya to come with me.
01:31There are children over here who are being kept occupied by allowing them space to draw. Excuse me.
01:43And then there are people over here who are selling things for children who come here every night. There are
01:50competitions that are being held for children, for the elderly. There you see little kids with their crayons, drawings to
01:58keep them occupied while the parents do what they have to do which is come out here, stay together.
02:06Show unity and solidarity. And here you have little kids who are drawing, who are painting and then who also
02:18go give it. Maybe in some cases also get rewarded for it.
02:24So these are nights where you question why is the world at war when you have young children with bright
02:34futures and Iran over here coming together only to send that run message of strength, of bravery, of togetherness.
02:44With the journalist at Angolab Square of Tehran, Geetha Mohan for India today.
02:51Hanya is from the Red Crescent. She's joining me here. You have a little setup of the Red Crescent. Why?
02:57Yes. Because we are here for our country. For our rights. For our killed child in Mina's school. For everything
03:10that is ours. For Persian Gulf. Or Khalid Fars. Or hormones. Or everything that begins with H.
03:27We are here for messaging this. We are standing with our government. We are standing with our religion. We are
03:37standing for everything or for everyone that wants his rights. We are standing here and we will stand here.
03:46Because we are not weak. We are powerful. We are not weak.
03:52President Trump of the US says he is fighting for your rights. What do you have to say?
03:56No. We, just we can fight for our rights. Not him. Look at the nation of America. Mr. President Trump,
04:06we have a question. Okay? We have a question from you. What about your nation's rights? For Americans' rights?
04:15Are you thinking? Are you thinking about the price of oil? Are you thinking about the price of gas? Are
04:22you thinking about the price of gasoline? For your people. Just think about for your people. We don't need you
04:31here.
04:33In Iraq. The people didn't need you. But they didn't need you. In Afghanistan? They didn't need you. In Syria?
04:41They didn't need you. In Libya? They didn't need you. Why don't sit in your place? In your chair? Please
04:52wait for every limit in your country. Please think about your country.
