In Washington, President Obama called the government’s reaction “violent and unjust,” and, quoting Martin Luther King Jr., warned again that the world was watching what happened in Tehran.
Then watch, because the Iranians getting these images out want the world to see. Warning: extremely graphic. It is a video of a young girl dying after being shot by one of the regime's Basij militia. The person who posted it wrote:
Original source - Facebook: Basij shoots to death a young woman in Tehran's Saturday June 20th protests At 19:05 June 20th Place: Karekar Ave., at the corner crossing Khosravi St. and Salehi st. A young woman who was standing aside with her father watching the protests was shot by a basij member hiding on the rooftop of a civilian house. He had clear shot at the girl and could not miss her. However, he aimed straight her heart. I am a doctor, so I rushed to try to save her. But the impact of the gunshot was so fierce that the bullet had blasted inside the victim's chest, and she died in less than 2 minutes. The protests were going on about 1 kilometers away in the main street and some of the protesting crowd were running from tear gass used among them, towards Salehi St. The film is shot by my friend who was standing beside me. Please let the world know.
At the end of the clip, you hear a man yelling, "Bemoon! Bemoon!" I am told that means "Stay! Stay!" in Farsi. Perhaps it is her father, begging her not to die.
Pray for that girl's soul. Pray for the Iranians.
