About 80,000 people joined a demonstration against the Iranian government in the German city of Munich today, police say, as world leaders gathered nearby for a security conference.
The protesters rallied in Munich’s Theresienwiese area, denouncing the leadership of Iran’s Islamic Republic following the deadly repression of nationwide protests in January.
According to the US-based Human Rights Activists News Agency, 7,008 people, mostly protesters, were killed in the crackdown, though rights groups warn the toll is likely far higher.
More than 53,000 people have been arrested, it added.
