For those who don’t know Voria Ghafouri, he is one of the most beloved and best football players of Iran. He has been an outspoken critic of the Islamic Republic. He is Kurdish-Iranian, plays for an Iranian team and lives in Iran with his family. His sister was also heavily involved in fighting the ban on Iranian women attending sports stadiums.  

We Iranians have a deep connection with football. It is the most popular sport in Iran and since the beginning, it has been closely connected to Iranian politics. We do expect our football players to stand with the people because they are from the people and of the people. That’s why we have been massively disappointed in Iran’s national team.

Although he lives in Iran with his family, Voria has never shied away from speaking out and standing with the people. Voria could face the death penalty for his activism. This is not the first time Voria has been arrested but it may be the last. 

All Iranians, like Voria, who speak out and criticize the Islamic Republic are risking their lives. They are brave, courageous heroes of Iran. 

Please keep on spreading the news about Iran. We have to be their voice and do everything we can to support them and to make sure that people like Voria are not executed.

Being British we are very used to picking another team to cheer on after England's men get knocked out of a tournament, because you know...

And it is exciting that Wales are in the World Cup too.

But seriously I'm going to be cheering on Iran after my home nations, because they're seriously awesome about standing up for what they believe in. (I'm personally not watching the games, but I'm reading about news because the human rights violations in Qatar.)

As well as Iran refusing to sing their national anthem in protest of what is going on back home. (Sadly at the same game England's men backed out of wearing an arm band in support of LGBT+ people in fear of getting a yellow piece of card)

Voria Ghafouri, who is not part of World Cup squad. Has been arrested as "warning to players" in Qatar. He has been really out spoken been outspoken in his defence of Iranian Kurds, telling the government on social media to stop killing Kurdish people. He has previously been detained for criticising the former Iranian foreign minister Javad Zarif.

Like at great personal risk he has done this, and the Iranian players are also taking risks, and I honestly think the world should be like.

We are watching!

But I am really happy that England's and Germany's women have been there wearing the pro LGBTQIA+ arm band, and have been like, and what? That's bad AF.

Welsh fans also got into trouble and had rainbow hats confiscated as they tried to enter the stadium in them. And honestly that's still putting up the resistance. Which is really great.

We honestly need to stand up for human rights wherever we see abuses, and make sure we tell countries we are watching these people who have been arrested, so they cannot disappear.

Even if those abuses happen at home.

Who is football player Voria Ghafouri, arrested for insulting Iran?

This World Cup truly gets more and more depressing each day

[mabaki]

so @dion-iron gave me the idea to draw Vorias as Norn!Mbk's mantle instead of a bear lmao

Rip Vorias, at least his fur is warm 😌

Voria Ghafouri

I heard today that contrary to what we believed, Voria is still in jail. Anyone has any updates? 

[tricos-here]

Honestly god bless Daenhi,fellow guardian child,I kiss em. If you think about it guardian ocs are the perfect kind to bully mentally and turn their lives into a nightmare,like, hell yeah imma make half of the people you're responsible for suffer or die because you didn't heal em fast enough. All because I had a bad day or sum shit

funnily enough, my only other guardian, who was I think the second character I ever made, is one of the most carefree and trauma free of my characters lmao

but you're so right, by name alone you can shove so much responsibility on guardians, and knowing the pain of running to someone who's downed ingame and not making it in time.... imagine that in character oof
