The Iranian government’s internet and communication blackout has made it difficult to know the magnitude of its violent crackdown on antigovernment protests that began in late December. Iranian authorities have put the official death toll at 3,117, a figure that human rights groups say vastly underestimates the toll. The New York Times has been able to piece together some of the stories of those who have been killed in Iran in recent weeks, through interviews with their family members outside the country and reports by human rights groups. Not all of the details could be independently verified. Photos via the Mostafavi family, the Golgoon family and the Aminian family #Iran #IranProtests #irannews
