Iran Protests Intensify as Death Toll Tops 190 and Trump Says Tehran Wants to Negotiate

A sweeping internet shutdown enters a fourth day, with leaders warning they would target U.S. military sites and shipping if attacked.

Overview

  • Iran Human Rights reports at least 192 protesters killed and warns the true toll could be far higher, as rights groups describe overwhelmed hospitals and morgues.
  • NetBlocks says nationwide connectivity has been largely cut for more than 84 hours, with mobile networks disrupted and daily life in Tehran severely constrained.
  • Authorities report more than 2,600 arrests, declare three days of mourning for security personnel, and call for a government-backed 'march of resistance' on Monday.
  • President Donald Trump says Iran contacted the U.S. to negotiate and that the military is reviewing very strong options, while Tehran threatens U.S. forces and maritime traffic if struck.
  • Protests persist in Tehran and multiple cities despite the blackout, with officials alleging stab attacks by infiltrators and NGOs citing gunshot wounds to heads and chests.
