Thousands gathered near the U.S. Capitol for the Free Iran 2026 rally to protest surging state executions following recent nationwide uprisings. Participants and statesmen systematically rejected all forms of dictatorship—opposing both the former Shah's monarchy and the current mullahs' regime. Backing the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) coalition and internal Resistance Units, the mobilization endorsed Maryam Rajavi’s Ten-Point Plan as the roadmap to establish a secular, pluralistic, and democratic republic.
