Videos Emerge of Iran's Bloody Crackdown Against Protesters
-----------------------------------------------------------

In Iran, videos of the Iranian security forces' violence against
protesters are emerging online, as Iran has partially restored internet
access, which was almost entirely blocked for over a week. Amnesty
International says over 100 people were killed in the crackdown against
demonstrations, sparked by a sharp rise in gas prices earlier this
month. U.S. sanctions against Iran have contributed to the economic
crisis. Iranian officials now say internet access in the country could
be curtailed indefinitely.
