Protests raging across Iran for over two weeks have plunged the nation into chaos, with communication lines severed for more than 84 hours. Streets filled with furious demonstrators challenging the Khamenei regime face a brutal crackdown, leaving at least 544 dead and over 10,000 arrested, according to U.S. media and rights groups.
The Iranian government has imposed a near-total internet shutdown, isolating citizens and hindering coordination among protesters. Mobile networks remain offline, amplifying fears as families lose touch amid escalating violence.
Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA) reports confirm the grim toll: 544 fatalities in 15 days of unrest, including eight children. Security forces have detained 10,681 individuals, many vanishing into overcrowded prisons.
A chilling video surfaced showing explosives hurled at child protesters, who narrowly escaped harm. This footage underscores the regime’s desperation to quell dissent sparked by economic woes and calls for reform.
Internationally, U.S. President Donald Trump revealed Iran has signaled willingness for talks amid threats of American military options. Iran’s parliament speaker warned of retaliation against U.S. bases if intervention occurs.
Khamenei, in a defiant video, boasted of Iran’s strength despite decades of sanctions and attacks. Yet, swelling crowds paint a different picture: a regime under siege, with the death toll soaring past 500 and arrests in the thousands.
