Iran's death toll: Hundreds of protesters have been killed in Iran, as the government tries to crack down on what look like some of the country's largest protests since 1979.
"The Center for Human Rights in Iran, based in New York, said it had received eyewitness accounts and credible reports that hundreds of protesters have been killed since the government shut down access to the internet Thursday night," reports The Washington Post. "The Human Rights Activists News Agency, also based in the United States, said 490 protesters have been killed since the protests began." The regime has attempted internet and cell service blackouts to try to suppress the spread of information, but the West has still managed to see videos of full body bags spread out, on hospital grounds, substantiating reports of a significant (yet still unknown) death toll.
