Tehran's hospitals and morgues are grappling with a staggering influx of bodies, as the Iranian regime struggles to cope with the aftermath of its violent crackdown on anti-regime protests. The unrest began on December 28, following the collapse of the national currency, and has since claimed dozens of lives.
According to medical sources, hundreds of bodies are currently piling up in morgues across northern Iran, with many more feared to be unaccounted for. A nurse at one hospital reported receiving around 50 bodies, with most showing signs of fatal gunshot wounds to the head. The hospital is struggling to care for all those injured, and surgeons are unable to reach them due to a complete breakdown in communication networks.
Eyewitness accounts paint a grim picture of the violence unleashed by security forces on unarmed protesters. One resident described seeing "blood everywhere" on the streets as people fled from riot police. A friend was even put to death at point-blunt range, and only managed to escape with his life after being spared.
Human rights activists estimate that at least 538 lives have been lost so far, but many more are feared to have perished in the chaos. The exact number of fatalities is impossible to verify due to a complete internet blackout and restrictions on cellphone communications imposed by the regime.

like what's happening in iran rn it's like they're losing control or something... all these people protesting and getting killed... it's just not right 
anyone else following this news? 
. its not just the death toll that's worrying, its how they're handling the afterlife too - think about all those families who are searching for loved ones and are getting nowhere due to the blackout 
. we need to keep an eye on this situation and see how it unfolds, it could be a real humanitarian crisis 
.
news is saying the unrest started after the currency collapsed but honestly idk how much more can iran take... all these lives lost, and still no internet connection? its like they want to control the narrative 
we need to be thinking about those innocent people who got caught in the crossfire, and all the loved ones left behind 
this is just getting worse 
all these innocent people caught in the crossfire... 538 lives lost already? It's devastating to think about what might still be unaccounted for. How are hospitals and morgues supposed to handle this many bodies?! 
the world needs to take action now...
. It's like we're taking two steps forward and three back, you know? First, it's freedom of speech, then it's violence and bloodshed... what's going on with these governments? 
I mean, I'm all for free speech too, but not at the cost of human life... it's just not right 
it's just so senseless and brutal 
. And them security forces just waltzing around and shooting people left and right without care... it's madness 
. I mean, what even is the point of a protest if you're just gonna get shot at in the head? 
It's like they're trying to wipe out any opposition or something... but come on, how many lives gotta be lost before people realize this isn't working out 
. Meanwhile, Twitter is flooded with #FreeIran hashtags and pleas for help 
. I just checked the human rights tracker website, it says that over 10k people have been arrested so far 
. The hospitals are literally drowning in bodies - a single hospital in Tehran received like 50+ corpses since Monday alone 
. I'm not even kidding when I say this crisis is spiraling out of control 
meanwhile we're hearing stories about people who got lucky to escape with their lives 
what kind of world is this? 
i'm just so fed up with the lack of accountability and transparency from governments, it's like they think they can just get away with whatever violence and repression they want to unleash on their own citizens 
this is beyond horrific what's happening in iran right now 
. And those eyewitness accounts of blood everywhere on the streets... it's like something out of a horror movie 
.
We need to keep an eye on this situation and make sure those responsible are held accountable 
.
. Anyway, where was I? Ah yes, the Iranian protests. It's just heartbreaking to see the regime struggling to cope with its own violence 
this is just getting out of hand 
these protests are not going away & the death toll keeps rising 
meanwhile, security forces seem to be more focused on silencing dissent than protecting human life 
which isn't always reliable anyway. i mean we're talking hundreds of bodies in morgues here, that's just insane 
this is getting crazy, i mean idk what's more disturbing - the fact that ppl r dyin for speakin out or that the govts response is basically nothin but bloodshed & silencin people's voices 
. how many more lives gotta be lost b4 we take action? 
. And even though it's super sad that so many lives are lost, it means that the Iranian people aren't willing to just sit back and let things get worse 
. Plus, we should hope that this gets some attention from the international community and maybe leads to some real change 
. Anyway, let's focus on spreading love and support for those affected by these protests 
.
how can security forces use that kind of violence against unarmed protesters? it's like they're not even human anymore...
at least 50 bodies just pouring in to one hospital? that's a nightmare scenario... I just hope people can find some kind of justice soon...
