BBC’s Lyse Doucet in Tehran for first time since unprecedented protest crackdown

The BBC has visited Iran for the first time since the crackdown by security forces on nationwide anti-government protests last month.

Iran’s leaders are marking 47 years since the Islamic Revolution, with bunting and flags decorating the streets of Tehran – but the pain is still raw after unprecedented force was used to put down the protests.

Human rights activists have said they have confirmed the killing of at least 6,400 protesters, but warned that the final death toll could be far higher.

The BBC’s chief international correspondent Lyse Doucet is reporting from Tehran on condition that none of her material is used on the BBC’s Persian Service. These restrictions apply to all international media organisations operating in Iran.
