Item Summary

“State Atrocities Against Protesters in Iran’s Kurdish Regions, reveals the atrocities committed by Islamic Republic of Iran security forces against the people of Javanrud, a primarily Kurdish city in northwestern Iran, during the months from October to December of 2022. As the state moved to crush public protests that had erupted in the city, which were part of the nationwide protests that followed the killing in state custody of 22-year-old Jina Mahsa Amini, security forces shot, with military-grade machine guns, cornered, and massacred unarmed civilians.”

“This investigative report by the Center for Human Rights in Iran (CHRI) and the Kurdistan Human Rights Network (KHRN) documents these crimes by the state, which rise to the level of crimes against humanity, identifies some of the perpetrators involved in them, and provides a series of recommendations for the international community to respond to these atrocities.”
