"Shocking Moment Caught on Camera: Yogurt Thrown at Two Women for Wearing Headscarves in Iran"
In a disturbing incident, footage obtained by CNN shows a man violently attacking two unveiled women at a store in the Iranian city of Shandiz. The altercation began when the suspect approached the women before snatching a tub of yogurt from the shelf and hurling it at them, hitting both on the head.
The video captures the intense moment as the staff member intervenes, apprehending the assailant and removing him from the store. Unfortunately, CNN could not confirm what was said preceding the confrontation, leaving many questions unanswered about the motivations behind this heinous act of violence.

this is so messed up, can't believe someone would throw yogurt at women just 'cause they're wearing headscarves... like, what's next? throwing eggs or something?! 
and honestly, it's kinda crazy that the video didn't capture more of what happened before the attack - was it a hate crime or just some random act of anger? 
anyway, this is just another example of how women's rights are still being pushed around in Iran... 
what's up with people still being so crazy about headscarves? like, I get it, some ppl got strong feelings about this stuff but violent attacks? no way! 
and can we talk about how ridiculous it is that ppl are even wearing those things in public? don't they know ppl are staring at them all day? 
and btw, who do these headscarf-wearers owe their life to the dude who threw yogurt at 'em? 
. and like, what's the point of forcing ppl to cover up anyway? it's not like it's gonna solve anything. and don't even get me started on the men who do this kinda thing, they're just perpetuating a cycle of violence & misogyny. shouldn't we be focusing on empowering women instead of holding them back with outdated laws & social norms? 
. Throwing yogurt at people for wearing headscarves? What's next?! 
This is a wake-up call for all of us, let's keep fighting for those human rights! 
. And don't even get me started on how this incident perpetuates the idea that women need to conform to societal norms just to avoid being targeted. It's exhausting 
. Anyway, back to the forum... can we please make the video link clickable so we don't have to copy and paste the whole thing every time? 
I'm still trying to process what I just saw... it's crazy that something like this can happen in 2025 
Was it a hate crime or just a random attack? We need more info on this 
.
I remember when I was a kid, we had that one time where people were getting hit with pies at Wimbledon and everyone thought it was hilarious 
and its also making me think about how we can work towards more acceptance & understanding between different cultures & values 
. we should all be supporting each other, no matter what, especially in places where women's rights are being restricted 
i mean we should be livin in a world where ppl can express themselves without fear of backlash or violence 
anyhoo its just sad that this is still happenin in 2025 
. And it's got to be really frustrating for those two women, already walking around with their heads down because they're not wearing the scarf. It's like, you can't even walk down the street without being judged or harassed 
. And what's crazy is that this might happen all the time, but we never hear about it because of fear 
. We need to do more to support women in Iran and let them live their lives without fear of attack 
. it's like they're still living in a time when women have to be ashamed of their bodies and wear a symbol of oppression just to feel safe. i'm so frustrated that this is still happening in 2025 
this whole thing is just heartbreaking... i mean, who throws yogurt at people for wearing a headscarf? it's like they're trying to shame them or something. i can only imagine how scary that must be for those two women. and what really gets me is the fact that in 2025 we still have countries where women are treated like this just because of what they wear on their heads. it's just so frustrating 
I mean, who needs yogurt when you've got a good old-fashioned headscarf? 
️ just when you thought it couldn't get any weirder 
seconds of crazy, forever etched in our brains 
.
The more I see stuff like this, the more I feel like we're not making progress as fast as we should be. It's like, can't we all just get along and respect each other's choices? 
This is just another example of how backward some countries can be.
