Iran was kicked out of the United Nations women’s agency on Wednesday in a U.S.-led vote that comes months into Tehran’s brutal crackdown on an uprising organized by women and young people demanding the end of the Islamic Republic’s rule.

The resolution, backed by 29 members of the U.N. Economic and Social Council, was the strongest symbolic gesture so far by the United Nations in response to Iran’s efforts to quell a women-led uprising that began in September. In late November, the U.N.’s Human Rights Council voted to create an independent fact-finding mission to investigate and document Iran’s human rights violations.
