Tehran, Iran – The Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA), in its report released today, coinciding with the 25th day of the popular protests, revealed shocking figures documenting the extent of the Iranian authorities’ repression.

The report emphasized that the confrontation is no longer confined to the streets

but has escalated into an open battle over narratives and statistics amidst mounting international pressure.

According to HRANA’s data, the number of confirmed and documented deaths has reached 4,902, while 9,387 other deaths remain under investigation.

The report indicated that the actual number of casualties far exceeds the official figures,

noting that the number of seriously injured is at least 7,389,

and the total number of detainees since the protests began has risen to 26,541.

The agency asserted that these figures are being recorded amidst systematic government attempts to impose a selective official narrative

aimed at downplaying the number of victims and limiting its impact both domestically and internationally.

The report highlighted a significant shift in the Iranian government’s internet policy, following the announcement

by the Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council that the date for restoring internet service was “unknown.”

HRANA considered this statement an official acknowledgment of the policy of indefinite censorship, effectively ending previous promises of

a “gradual return” of service and transforming the closure of the digital space into a permanent and indefinite situation.

HRANA concluded its report by asserting that the Iranian regime is currently banking on

what it termed “open digital time” to manage the situation and absorb public anger.

However, leaked and on-the-ground data indicate, according to the agency, that Iran is experiencing one

of the most brutal campaigns of repression in its modern history, amidst escalating human and political costs.
