Famous Instagram influencer Aysan Eslami has called on Afghan citizens to stand with the people of Iran during the ongoing protests.
In a live broadcast, he emphasized that Iranians need the moral support and solidarity of their neighbors, particularly Afghans, to achieve their civil rights.
Recalling the historical support Iranians have shown to Afghan refugees, Eslami argued that it is now time for Afghans to reciprocate this solidarity.
He believes that raising a collective voice can play a significant role in the current movement for freedom.
The appeal has sparked mixed reactions among Afghans online.
While some welcomed the call as a sign of regional empathy, others argued that Afghans should remain focused on their own internal crises rather than getting involved in the affairs of other nations.
