Iran: police open fire on protesters in south-western Baluchi city of Zahedan

There were reports of as many as six killed in Zahedan on Friday, including a 12-year-old boy. Footage obtained by Reuters showed large crowds marching through the city's streets chanting anti-government slogans after they had come out of Friday prayer.

Further footage circulating widely on social media showed protesters fleeing as security forces repeatedly fired.

Zahedan was the scene of Iran's most deadly violence since the protests started after Mahsa Amini died, where many were killed on 30 September during protests. While authorities put that death toll at 35, rights groups have suggested over 60 people died.
