This document contains the details of 324 men, women and children documented by Amnesty
International as having been killed by Iran’s security forces during their crackdown on mass protests
that erupted across Iran between 15 and 19 November 2019, following the government’s
announcement about the significant overnight rise in the price of fuel.1
Amnesty International believes that the real number of those killed is higher than 324. The
organization is aware of scores of additional names that have been reported online, but has assessed
that it does not yet have sufficient reliable details to include them in its list of 324 recorded deaths.
The lack of access to information is due, in large part, to the climate of intense fear created by the
authorities, which has resulted in fewer families and other informed individuals being willing to
speak out.
