Yasmine Pahlavi in ​​the demonstration of Iranians in Los Angeles on the anniversary of Mahsa

The intersection of Westwood Boulevard and Rochester Avenue- in an area home to Persian businesses- will be renamed Women Life Freedom Square in Amini's memory, according to a record of the City Council vote on its website. The months-long anti-government protests that followed Amini's death spiraled into the biggest show of opposition to Iran's authorities in years. The United States and Iran have clashed on human rights, Tehran's nuclear program and its support for regional Shi'ite militias, but a deal announced on Monday allowing five Iranian Americans to leave Iran removes a major irritant.
