An internet shutdown has plunged Iran into a communications blackout as authorities continue to unleash their deadly repression against protesters. UN member states should press Iran to stop the bloodshed and pursue accountability.

States may not suspend fundamental rights simply by declaring “security concerns.” International law requires necessity, proportionality, and legality — none are met in Iran’s shutdowns. #Iran #HumanRights

Let's stand together for freedom and peace. StandWithIranProtesters 🇮🇷💛💙

By shutting down the internet and communication networks, the Islamic regime of Iran is holding its people hostage and hiding its crimes.

Peaceful protesters should never be met with live fire. I urge you to publicly condemn the killing of demonstrators in Iran and support tangible, coordinated consequences for the regime and its tyrant leader. #Iran #PahlaviReza

@POTUS @SecRubio

This is what happens when a state survives by crushing its people. Silence no longer works. Iran is speaking. Let’s listen — and echo their voices. #FreeIran

Do something and don’t be just performative morons! Just once in the history!

After the Iranian people, it's the Egyptian people's turn to oust dictator Sisi. #Iran Don't forget #Egypt and the Egyptians too. Since General Al-Sisi seized power, the repression in Egypt has been unprecedented. All the opposition members are in prison, all the young revolutionaries are in prison, and the others are refugees abroad. General Al-Sisi is revising the constitution (illegally…) to remain in power for a third term, and then for life… The Egyptian people do not accept this, and I do not accept it. The Egyptian people are suffering, and their patience has its limits. There is a real EMERGENCY in Egypt for the Egyptian people… for the Middle East, for Africa, and for Europe… Please find below a documentary (produced by Arte: Sisi, the New Pharaoh of Egypt) summarizing the highly explosive situation in Egypt… Sincerely, #BAKRY @EgyptEmergency

Zero trust oh UN human rights

Over 12,000 peaceful protesters killed. A week-long internet blackout to hide the crimes. Now Iran’s regime blames the U.S. and Israel instead of taking responsibility. The world must not stay silent. #IranProtests #StopExecutionsInIran #InternetShutdown #HumanRights #CrimesAgainstHumanity #UN #FreeIran

lol you support the Iranian Islamist regime. You’re evil.

#DigitalBlackoutIran draws attention to a complete shutdown of digital and mobile communications in Iran.

Why HR watch is blind against palestinian massacre, point of shame for you.

SOS @realDonaldTrump @FoxNews

Why is the world silent? This is worse than war crimes. A government has not only shut down the internet but also cut phone lines so it can kill its own people. Why is no one speaking up? Why do we see no action? We need action. Do something. Save the people of Iran.
