Summary

Iranian authorities have confirmed that over fifty schools, nearly all were girl's schools, have been struck with poisoning attacks that coincidentally started when protests for women's rights began last November. Those affected suffered headaches, heart palpitations and dizziness forcing young schoolgirls to attend classes in gas masks. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Moj Mahdara, co-founder of 'Kinship Ventures' and a founding member of the Iranian Diaspora Collective, on her feelings of what's behind the poisonings and the current state of protest in Iran.
