The Iranian Resistance has been able to verify that at least 450 persons have been killed during the Iran uprising. The People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran has published the names of 179 of these martyrs, so far.
The vicious slaughter of protesters in Iran is a manifest case of crime against humanity and the Iranian regime’s leaders must face justice for them. The Iranian Resistance calls for the dispatch of a fact-finding mission to Iran to investigate the deaths, injury and imprisonment of protesters.
