Iran's opposition --- from figures such as Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi to political parties to student groups to labour organisations --- has called for rallies across the country on Monday. Ostensibly, these are in support of the Tunisian and Egyptian uprisings; however, the marches are also to demonstrate the "Green Wave", which arose first to challenge the claimed election of President Ahmadinejad in June 2009 and then to demand rights and justice, has not been quelled by the Iranian regime.

EA has been LiveBlogging every day of the post-election crisis since 13 June 2009, and we would not miss one. James Miller of Dissected News and I will be on hand from 0600 GMT.

If the rallies materialise, we will also have snap analyses, photos, and video, courtesy of EA correspondents in Britain, Europe, the US, and Iran as well as the best sources from old and new media. And we will be partnered with Dave Siavashi of Iran News Now and Josh Shahryar, who will be LiveBlogging for Tehran Bureau.

New to all of this? Have a read of James Miller's "Iran 101".
