With the internet blocked to prevent news from being broadcast, we have a dramatic increase in the death toll from anti-government protests in Iran, with more than 1,000 people confirmed dead, and people talking about 12,000 dead.

According to the American organization Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA), this report comes as the country is in a state of near-total internet blackout, while the protests are entering their third week.

You want to know exactly what's going on in Persia (Iran) ???

New message from Trump: "We are considering possible options"
"Iranian leaders have called," Donald Trump told reporters accompanying him on the presidential plane, adding that "a meeting is being prepared (...) They want to negotiate"

HRANA announced that at least 540 people have been confirmed dead, a number that has increased dramatically in just 24 hours. At the same time, 570 additional deaths remain under investigation, which raises the possible total toll from the protests in Iran to currently exceed 1,100 dead , making the uprising one of the bloodiest in recent years in Iran.

According to the human rights group, most of the protesters were killed by live fire or shrapnel, often at close range, fueling allegations of extreme repression by security forces.

Images broadcast on state television showed dozens of body bags at Tehran’s forensic medical center, while relatives of victims waited desperately outside the Kahrizak Forensic Medical Center to identify bodies. The government says their deaths were the result of “armed terrorists” from foreign forces, a claim strongly disputed by independent sources.

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump said on Sunday that Iranian leaders had contacted his government to "negotiate", following his threats to order military action, as the Islamic Republic faces mass protests against the government.

"The Iranian leaders called" the day before yesterday Saturday, Donald Trump told reporters accompanying him on the presidential plane, adding that " he is preparing a meeting, they want to negotiate ".

However, the Republican said that "we may have to take action before" any meeting. He noted that the US armed forces are considering "very strong options" regarding Iran, which " has started to cross the red lines " set by Washington.

"We are looking at the issue very seriously. The military is looking at the issue, and we are looking at very strong options. We will make a decision," the US president told reporters accompanying him on his plane.

At the same time, he sent a clear message of deterrence, saying: 

"If Iran strikes our bases in the region, we will hit them harder than ever."

 



Regime Confirms Starlink Blockade
According to Forbes, the Iranian regime has deployed military jamming systems that block access to the Starlink satellite network, severely affecting alternative connectivity for anti-regime protesters.

As reported by Iran Wire, despite the fact that tens of thousands of Starlink terminals are reportedly operating in the country, the state outage has also extended to satellite connections, with an initial 30% loss of traffic, which exceeded 80% within a few hours.

The Times of Israel also confirms the increased use of Starlink in Iran, noting that this is happening despite the service remaining illegal in the country. The development intensifies fears of a new phase of digital authoritarianism, as protesters’ means of communication are being drastically limited.

The regime has carried out mass arrests and imprisonments

. In addition to the dead, HRANA reports that over 10,500 people have been arrested and transferred to prisons, as the regime attempts to suppress any pockets of resistance. The lack of access to independent information, due to the blackout in all 31 provinces of the country, makes it impossible to get a full picture of the extent of the repression.
Threats of war

At the same time, the developments are causing strong international reactions. US President Donald Trump stated that "very strong options" are being considered, warning that if Iran continues to "kill its people", there will be serious consequences. The possibility of American intervention has put Israel on alert.

Tehran, for its part, threatened that in the event of an attack, American and Israeli bases would be considered legitimate targets, with the Iranian parliament echoing slogans of "Death to America."


Negotiations Called for First Time - Ready to Listen to the People

Iranian President Masoud Peskov has referred to the protests for the first time, calling them “terrorists incited by foreign powers.” However, he said the government was “ready to listen to the people” and address the economic problems that have fueled the protests – statements that stand in stark contrast to the mounting death toll on the streets.

With hundreds of confirmed deaths and hundreds more under investigation, the protests in Iran have now become a symbol of a bloody clash between state and society, raising serious questions about human rights abuses and the risk of a wider regional conflict.

The body bags are full of dead protesters. 
Calls are being made to the international community for help.


To the International Community,
To governments, institutions, media and all those who still claim to have a conscience,

The death toll has exceeded thousands.
These are not statistics. These were people with names, families, dreams and futures that were violently erased.

While the bodies are piling up, people are issuing announcements.
While entire communities are torn apart, the global response remains mired in “concern,” “surveillance,” and “calls for restraint.”

Let me be clear:
Silence on this scale is not neutrality. It is complicity.

History has shown us time and again that atrocities do not happen overnight. They happen when crimes are normalized, when victims are dehumanized, and when the international community chooses political convenience over moral responsibility.

How many deaths does it take for action to replace rhetoric?
How many children must be buried before this is no longer treated as a "complex situation"?

International law is not vague about mass killings, collective punishment, and systematic violence against civilians. What is disturbingly vague is the willingness of global powers to enforce the very principles they claim to uphold.

This letter is not a request.
It is a condemnation of indifference.

One day you will be asked where you have been, not by historians, but by the dead.
And "we were worried" will not be an acceptable answer.

If humanity still means something, now is the time to prove it not with words, but with actions.

The world is watching.
History records.
And the victims deserve more than your silence.

Dr. Maalouf  @realMaalouf It’s estimated that the Islamic regime has now killed 12,000 Iranians. I don’t even have words. This is a fucking genocide.
