Over 2,500 Killed in Iran Protests, Rights Group HRANA Says

Over 2,500 killed in Iran protests, U.S. rights group HRANA says, as President Trump urges continued demonstrations and promises “help is on the way.”

The death toll from ongoing protests in Iran has reached 2,571 as of January 14, the U.S.-based human rights group HRANA reported on Wednesday, January 14 as the Islamic Republic faces its largest wave of unrest in years.

HRANA said it had verified the deaths of 2,403 protesters, 147 government-affiliated personnel, 12 minors, and nine non-protester civilians.
