The Siahkal incident (Persian: رویداد سیاهکل) or Siahkal movement (Persian: جنبش سیاهکل) refers to a guerrilla operation against the Pahlavi government organized by Iranian People's Fadaee Guerrillas that happened near Siahkal town in Gilan on February 8, 1971. The guerrillas attacked a gendarmerie post at Siahkal, killing three policemen and freeing two previously arrested guerrillas.

Thirteen men were convicted and executed for the incident, including two who were in prison at the time.[1]

The event marked the beginning of the guerrilla era in Iran for most historians — an era which ended with the Islamic Revolution.[2][3]

One thought on “Cannabaceae”

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
