At least 12000 killed in Iran crackdown as blackout deepens.

Updated: 13:17 GMT

Iran is under a coordinated blackout aimed not only at security control but at concealing the truth. Internet cuts, crippled communications, media shutdowns, and intimidation of journalists and witnesses point to one goal: preventing a vast and historic crime from being seen.

In recent days, after receiving scattered but shocking and deeply troubling reports, Iran International has focused on verifying information to build a clearer picture of the scale of repression and the killings during the latest protests.

In a country where authorities deliberately restrict access to information, such an assessment is difficult and time-consuming – particularly because rushing to publish incomplete casualty figures risks errors in documenting events and could distort the true scale of this tragedy.

From Sunday, the volume of evidence and the convergence of accounts reached a point where a relatively accurate assessment became possible.

Over the past two days, Iran International’s editorial board has reviewed – through a rigorous, multi-stage process and in accordance with established professional standards – information received from a source close to the Supreme National Security Council; two sources in the presidential office; accounts from several sources within the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in the cities of Mashhad, Kermanshah, and Isfahan; testimonies from eyewitnesses and families of those killed; field reports; data linked to medical centers; and information provided by doctors and nurses in various cities..

At least 12,000 killed in Iran crackdown during internet blackout

At least 12,000 people have been killed in Iran in the largest killing in the country's contemporary history, much of it carried out on January 8 and 9 during an ongoing internet shutdown, according to senior government and security sources speaking to Iran International.

Maximum (“worst-case”) aggregation
This version counts every major conflict where Iran or Iran-aligned forces were a significant participant, even when responsibility was shared with many other actors.

Iran–Iraq War (1980–1988)
Upper estimate: ~1,000,000 deaths

(Some historians give 500k–1M total; this uses the top end)

Internal repression in Iran (1979–2026)
Includes:

Revolution & early purges

1988 prison massacres

Protest killings (2009, 2019, 2022)

Current crackdown (your cited ~12,000)

High-end total: ~40,000

Syrian Civil War (2011–2025)
Total war deaths (SOHR / UN high estimates): ~650,000

This count attributes the full death toll to the Iran–Assad–Russia axis for maximum aggregation, even though responsibility is shared.

Yemen War (Iran–Houthi axis)
High-end conflict death estimates (combat + indirect): ~400,000

Again, full attribution assumed for upper bound.

Hezbollah / IRGC international attacks
Lebanon, Argentina (1992, 1994), others:

~400

Iraq (post-2003 militias, sectarian war, ISIS era)
If all deaths involving Iran-backed militias are counted at the high end:

~250,000–300,000

Hamas / PIJ conflicts
If all deaths in Gaza wars where Iran materially supported Hamas are included at maximum:

~40,000–50,000

Highest Possible Grand Total
Deathsq:

Iran–Iraq War = 1,000,000
Syria = 650,000
Yemen = 400,000
Iraq militias = 300,000
Internal Iranian repression: 40,000
Hamas / PIJ conflicts = 50,000
Hezbollah terrorism = 400
TOTAL (upper bound)≈2.44 MILLION

Iran protests death toll could be as high as 20,000 - CBS News.

At least 12,000 people, and possibly as many as 20,000, have been killed during nationwide protests in Iran, CBS News reported, citing two sources including one inside Iran, hours after Iran International earlier reported a death toll of up to 12,000, largely over two consecutive nights of protests on January 8 and 9.

The liberals aren’t crying about this genocide because there’s no way to blame the Jews for it.

 

[Lisa558]

Trump will go down in history as the most successful president of my lifetime if he is able to topple the Islamic Regime of Terrorism.

The Iranian people will thank him, the Israelis will thank him, all the good Americans will thank him, and all the good people of the civilized world will thank him. The only ones crying will be the radical Islamists and the radical Leftists.

 

[FDR_Reagan]

The liberals aren’t crying about this genocide because there’s no way to blame the Jews for it.

Imagine claiming to be leaders for democracy, justice, and human rights, but refusing to say anything about Iran.
Up to 20,000 protestors killed by the regime.
A moral failure, @BernieSanders @RoKhanna @SenWarren @IlhanMN @PramilaJayapal .
Selective outrage. Total hypocrisy.

Golden Globes Celebs Protest ICE, Israel, Ignore Iran Genocide​

Stunning and brave.​

In the least surprising news ever, the union of leftist professional virtue signalers known colloquially as Hollywood joined together to protest for open borders and Hamas for the twentieth time while ignoring actual courageous protesters being massacred in Iran.
The Golden Globes, an event thrown by foreign media in Hollywood to give prizes to celebrities for screwing up their faces on camera, is mostly irrelevant, especially it was gutted in the BLM era over (in part) one of my articles about Hollywood’s BLM ties, but serves as a forum for movie stars to show off their latest fashions, for celebrities to show off their latest awkward jokes, and their even more awkward causes.
The media covered the expected displays of anti-ICE virtue signaling by Mark Ruffalo, who would be doing the occasional appearance on hour long network crime shows if it wasn’t for Marvel’s miscasting, Natasha Lyonne, who may or may not have recovered from her past insane tantrums and assorted people you’ve probably never heard of.
Some of them wore ICE OUT pins at the gala awards ceremony, probably worried that ICE was about to break in and take away their illegal alien drivers, hairdressers or prostitutes.
Hannah Einbinder (spelling? who knows? who cares?) that girl from Hacks, that show that 0.0004% of the country watches, showed up once again with her anti-Israel pin after falsely accusing Israel of genocide for fighting Hamas. No mention of Iran where some estimate that 2,000 protesters were killed fighting against the state sponsor of Hamas.
Some of the elderly folks scrambled to catch up.

Nominee Jean Smart, who has previously won two Globes for her role as Deborah Vance in the TV show Hacks, said it was hard to think about work in the wake of the killings. She wasn’t wearing a pin on the carpet but had added one to her outfit by the time she accepted her award on stage.
“Everything’s kind of a little bit overshadowed with what’s going on in our country. I feel like we’re kind of at a turning point in this country,” the acclaimed actress said in a red carpet interview with Entertainment Tonight. “I hope people can keep their heads. It’s going to take a lot of courage, and a lot of restraint… It’s very concerning.”

Hey kids, I’m down with your cause. Whatever it is. So long as it’s not anything controversial like the right of girls to play sports or the right of women in Iran not to wear hijabs.
Stunning and brave.
To give you some context, more protesters died in Iran than the number of young people who watch Hacks. The demo rating for the 18-49 crowd is 39,000. Most of that will be in the top of the age demo. Now probably most younger viewers are streaming it. Maybe. Who knows. Streamers are not transparent. But we do know that pretty much no one outside Hollywood watches Hacks.

“Nielsen published the top Emmy shows by viewership and left out Hacks. To be blunt, this show is not a hit. In three seasons, it’s made the Nielsen charts once”

The double standards again.

Estimates are now that the Islamist Regime have killed 20,000 of their own people - and deliberately.

Where are the Board’s antisemites who have been screaming - falsely - about a “Zionist Genocide”? All of a sudden, radio silence,

MORE evidence that Jew-hate is what is driving the lies about Israel.

Thanks for the article - it’s worthy of its own thread.

Smart, honest people knew it all along. Yet whenever I said that the virulent, hate-spewed rallies against Israel, in which they shouted “Death to Jews!,” was driven by antisemitism, I was met with contempt that I see antisemitism where it doesn’t exist and that “criticizing Israeli policy” is not antisemitic.

People should see now that it was never about criticizing Israeli policy - rather it was driven by antisemites to send the only Jewish-majority country (the size of NJ) into oblivion.

How else can you explain the well-organized “demonize Israel” rallies that popped up within DAYS of the barbaric Islamic massacre on Oct 7? It was all orchestrated by and paid for by deep-pocketed Arab antisemites.

1. Kuwait isn't related. You just threw it in, in your salad to confuse.

2. Actually, after all the denials (by the gang 1, 2, 3, 4 roaming on Wikipedia , and Hamas-linked al Jazeera1,2,3) babies indeed were beheaded by "palestinian" butchers. Read it carefully:

3. As to the thousands massacred by your beloved Islamic Republic, with all the internet ban, Iran official admitted already to a few thousands.

Iran official admits 3000 killed amid protest crackdown
Jan 13, 2026 — Around 3,000 people have been killed in Iran amid the ongoing protests, an Iranian official told The New York Times on Tuesday

The maximum appears to be over 30,000

BTW, you can lose already the old 2003 "neocon" term cliche, Trump's ideology is more complex.

And clarity on facts does not mean that I propose this or that action.

More FAKE NEWS
But now the joint US / Israel Regime Change effort has been totally thwarted .
Iran stopped Starlink communication and order is fully restored .

Trumpfy is desperate to delay the total collapse of the US . Where will he look next to Deflect from Bankruptcy ?

Mexico and Columbia are presumably at the top of his "acquisition" list and narrative .

While that might technically be true, it is still notable to see the difference between liberals (it’s mostly liberals) screaming about the 20,000 or so Palestinian inadvertently killed as Israel seeks to destroy HAMAS and the 20,000 Iranians the Islamic Terror Regime is outright murdering.

Double standards.
