According to the report, more than 28,000 Qashqai Turks have signed a petition in the three days since the campaign was launched.

It should be noted that Qashqai Turks live mainly in the Shiraz, Isfahan, Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari and Bushehr provinces of Iran, and partly in the provinces of Khuzestan, Kohgiluye and Boyer Ahmad.

Although they claim to number around 3 million, the Iranian government's official statistics for 2016 claim that 959,000 people speak Qashqai Turkish.
