The group Human Rights Iran said this week said the death toll from the crackdown on the ongoing nationwide protests has so far reached at least 215, of which 27 were children.<\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s government has claimed Amini suffered a heart attack and was not mistreated. Her family said she had no history of heart trouble and that her body bore bruises and other signs of beating.<\/p>\n

The report said those arrested include those from United States, Russia, Austria, France, the United Kingdom, and Afghanistan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
