About this episode
Imagine having to mourn a loved one in secret. One month on, that seems to be the lot of many inside a shellshocked Iran, this after seeing the regime shut the internet and start shooting at unarmed protesters across the country in towns big and small. When the lights came back on, the Islamic Republic of Iran had got away with the very bloodbath that Donald Trump warned it not to carry out. While Washington's attention has instead shifted to nuclear negotiations with Tehran, the journalists at FRANCE 24's investigative unit have been hard at work on the testimony and images sent their way – with contacts risking their own lives by getting the word out. We show you an excerpt from their documentary "Iran, massacre under a blackout". Watch moreExclusive: Iran, massacre under a blackout You can sometimes win a war by annihilating your enemy.

Produced by François Picard, Rebecca Gnignati, Juliette Laffont, Ilayda Habip, Rochelle Ferguson.
