Iranian Protest Massacre and Human Rights Violations

More than 40,000 Iranians were massacred in a single week.

January, 2026.

با تیر جنگی ما رو می‌زنن.

The massacre of protesters in Iran.

The dry numbers alone cannot capture the horrors the Iranian regime committed in those days.

من مادر یکی از بچه‌هایی هستم که گرفتنش، بهش تجاوز کردن.

۱۶ نفر بهش تجاوز کردن.

بچه‌ی ۲۲ ساله‌ی من لال شد.

و واقعاً دیگه نمی‌تونیم زندگی کنیم و خودمون رو بکشیم.

Cross-referencing testimonies and key reports from leading international and Iranian human rights organizations,

including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and the UN commission of inquiry,

confirms that the body snatching industry in Iran was a systematic

and consistent modus operandi of the revolutionary guards.

The shocking findings document armed raids on hospitals

and forensic medicine centers, including the Kahrizak detention complex.

پرستارم و متاسفانه یا خوشبختانه روز هجدهم دی

شیفت شب بودم توی بیمارستان سینای تبریز.

و من ۱۳ مورد از کشته‌های این شلیک به سر،

خیلی دردناک بود چون معلومه

اصلاً هدف کاملاً کشتنه.

There is no, almost no casualties... a lot of casualties,

but I mean they are shooting to kill them, so they are kidnapping the casualties from the hospitals.

Testimonies reveal how families refuse to bring their wounded to hospitals

and hid bodies in their homes out of fear

that the Revolutionary Guard operatives would seize them at the medical facilities.

ما وایمیستیم تا آخرش.

Young women slaughtered for daring to protest,

or died under torture in detention,

اون شبی که ما رو بردن، انداختنمون توی یه سوله.

قبلش هم خیلی کتکمون زدن، در حدی که فکر کردم دیگه قرار نیست فردا رو ببینم.

and who never brought to burial.

مامان... مامان فدای این موهات بشم مامان...

موهای قرمزت مامان...

The Armenian State News agency reported last week

that Armenian authorities seized 764 packages of natural human hair

from smuggling attempts across the Armenian border from Iran since early January.

764 packages equivalent to roughly 160 kilograms.

اینا چی‌ان؟ دخترای ما کجان؟ چیکار کردین با دخترای ما؟

The latest smuggling chain ignited a storm on social media, flooding activist communities around the world with urgent questions.

Between January and June,

11 similar, large-scale shipments were uncovered.

In one case, the cargo was concealed inside pillows in a truck's cabin,

just days after the mass killing of protesters on January 8th and 9th.

Independent Iranian media outlets, including the Iranian Labor News Agency, ILNA,

have previously attempted to attribute the phenomenon to Iranian women shaving their heads

and selling their hair on local trading apps due to the country's economic crisis.

اینکه موهام رو لمس کنم و شونه بکشم، حس خوبی بهم میده.

ولی الان آگهی گذاشتم که بفروشمش تا خرج یک ماه زندگیم رو دربیارم.

تا بتونم مشکلم رو برطرف کنم.

But the facts tell a different story.

The global natural hair industry relies overwhelmingly on East Asian and Far Eastern countries,

primarily China and India, which have dominated this market for decades.

Iran, by contrast, has never been a significant player in the industry,

which makes the timing of the sudden spike in smuggling attempts raise serious questions.

What I've been noticing as of late is a massive, not just a couple of ponytails, but a massive influx of Iranian hair.

Countless families are still waiting for the bodies of their daughters,

killed during the massacre and never returned to them.

Many women never came home.

So while families are denied the right to know what became of their daughters,

silence itself is a crime.

Trump, take note. This is the regime you left standing.

Look, one death is too much.

And all I say to them is help is on its way.

ما با شما هستیم، زنان عزیز ایران.
