‘They are massacring people': Iran demos intensify in Kurdish city

Human rights activists have expressed alarm at a crackdown on protests in the Kurdish-populated city of Sanandaj in western Iran.

Violence has been especially intense in the city, where police have been accused of using live ammunition on protesters.

Demonstrations against the clerical establishment have swept across Iran since the death of Mahsa Amini in September.

Mahsa Amini, a Kurdish woman from the western city of Saqqez, fell into a coma after being detained by morality police in Tehran for allegedly violating the strict hijab law.
