Khamenei Orders Force Against Iranian Protests

Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei directed Iran’s Supreme National Security Council to suppress recent protests by any means necessary, resulting in security forces receiving “shoot to kill” orders. Reports indicate a state-orchestrated massacre, with security personnel using live fire against protesters across multiple cities. While an official death toll remains uncertain, estimates suggest over 36,500 Iranians may have been killed since the protests began, with many injured and hospitals overwhelmed. Eyewitness accounts describe horrific scenes, including bodies lining morgues and ongoing executions by the regime.
