Horrific Leaked Footage Reveals IRGC Using Heavy Machine Guns on Unarmed Crowds

Horrific new video footage has emerged from Iran late Saturday night, piercing the regime’s total internet blackout to reveal scenes of unbridled state violence that human rights groups are already classifying as war crimes. The graphic clips, reportedly smuggled out of the country via satellite uplink by resistance groups, provide the first visual confirmation that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has deployed heavy military weaponry against civilian protesters.
One particularly harrowing video, geolocated to the western city of Sanandaj, shows IRGC units firing a DShK 12.7mm heavy machine gun—a weapon designed to destroy aircraft and light armor—mounted on the back of a Toyota pickup truck directly into a dense crowd of fleeing demonstrators. The impact of the large-caliber rounds is devastating, with the footage capturing the immediate aftermath: bodies torn apart and streets slick with blood as screams drown out the gunfire.
Another verified clip from the impoverished suburbs of Tehran depicts plainclothes Basij militia executing wounded protesters at point-blank range. The video shows security forces walking casually among those lying on the ground, delivering “coup de grâce” shots to the heads of anyone showing signs of life.
“This is not crowd control; this is a massacre,” stated a spokesperson for Amnesty International, who reviewed the leaked files. “The use of battlefield weaponry in residential neighborhoods signals that the regime has abandoned any pretense of policing and is now treating its own population as an enemy combatant force.”
The release of this footage comes just hours after reports surfaced that the death toll had surpassed 500. The sheer brutality captured on camera explains the regime’s desperation to maintain the internet blackout; they are attempting to hide a slaughter of industrial scale. As these videos circulate on international social media, the pressure on Western governments to intervene is expected to reach a boiling point, with the images serving as undeniable proof that a “bloody crackdown” has morphed into a crime against humanity.
