Unprecedented scenes are unfolding in Iran, as protests engulf the countries major cities

Five people have been shot and killed by Iranian forces during protests. The protests erupted following the death of 22-year-old, Mahsa Amini, while she was in police custody.

Amini was arrested by the morality police, who have ramped up their patrol in the country, specifically targeting women who don’t oblige by their strict social Islamic Republic rules.

Iranian officials claim she died of a heart attack, with CCTV showing her collapsing while at the re-education camp. However, her family and supporters suspect foul play.

The death has triggered protests across the country, as many of them call for an immediate end to violence and unfair treatment from forces.

They can be heard chanting “death to the dictator.”

The United Nations has condemned any brutality by Iranian forces and is now calling for an independent investigation into Amini’s death.
