Rights group says thousands of protesters killed in Iran

Norway-based rights group Iran Human Rights (IHR) says 3,428 protesters have been verified to have been killed by security forces in Iran since protests began, but warns the actual toll could be several times higher. Other estimates place the death toll at more than 5,000 – and possibly as high as 20,000 – with the internet blackout severely hampering independent verification, IHR said.
