Iran's government intensifies clampdown on protests

Rights groups in Iran report a surge in casualties as Iran's nationwide protests enter their third week. More than 500 people have been killed and about 10,000 detained during the intensified crackdown.

Verified footage shows corpses outside a morgue near Tehran and hospitals in Shiraz overwhelmed by injured protesters.

Authorities have cut internet access for days, leaving reliable information scarce as security forces move forcefully against demonstrators.
