An eyewitness who recently fled Iran and whose identity is being withheld for his safety recounts indiscriminate gunfire that turned city streets into a battlefield. He says he saw thousands of bodies stored at a cemetery as families searched for missing loved ones during a nationwide digital blackout.
He is risking his life to speak out and send a message to the world that the killings are still ongoing and Iranians urgently need help. He describes witnessing indiscriminate gunfire directed at unarmed civilians, narrowly escaping being shot himself.
Eye for Iran host Negar Mojtahedi speaks with Republican Congressman Marlin Stutzman about what the United States may do next as Iranian lives hang in the balance. She also speaks with writer and human rights advocate Roya Hakakian on why this moment could mark a historic rupture for Iran and what pressure might reduce further civilian deaths.
The program also features Gunther Fehlinger-Jahn Chairman of the Austrian Committee for NATO Enlargement on why he supports the Iranian people and what he believes Europe should do in response.
This episode contains disturbing testimony.
