According to the report, wealthy Iranians reportedly crossed into Turkey to escape the unrest at home, partying in bars and nightclubs while protests continued across Iran. The Turkish province of Van, on Iran's eastern border, has long been popular with Iranian tourists. In recent weeks, the city has seen a rise in rich Iranians arriving to avoid political instability. And despite reports of deadly crackdowns and a nationwide internet blackout in Iran, elite visitors were reportedly seen drinking, socialising, and dancing in Van. One Iranian said it was an insult to the protesters who suffered and died to gain freedom from the yyan Khamenei.
The report stated that other Iranians were leaving, leaving a mass killing, worried that the true death toll had reached tens of thousands. That some people can afford to travel abroad and savour nights out in the town underscores the vast socio-economic gap within the country, one reason merchants first took to the streets in late December, triggering mass protests. But Iranians in exile say few families have been spared by the brutal crackdown back home, describing to Iran International an unprecedented wave of killings as security forces unleash violence under a nationwide communications blackout.
The report added that authorities later cut internet access across much of the country, severing communication and leaving families unable to confirm who was alive or dead. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei acknowledged for the first time on Saturday that several thousand had been killed since protests began three weeks ago, blaming the violence on protesters and foreign enemies.
