Amnesty International has accused Iranian authorities of committing crimes against humanity during their crackdown on the 2022-2023 nationwide protests. The allegations were detailed in a report highlighting severe and ongoing human rights violations associated with the demonstrations.
The protests erupted following the death of Mahsa Amini, becoming widely known under the banner of 'Woman, Life, Freedom.' Four years after the initial wave of unrest, Iranians continue to reflect on the lasting impact and consequences of the movement and the state's severe response.
