Iran massacre... how many killed, disappeared and jailed? 30,000? [View all]

I just heard on Velshi today that 30,000 protestors were murdered and thousands are imprisoned.

It is shocking! I had not heard that massive number before. I see an article from 1/27

Disappeared bodies, mass burials and ‘30,000 dead’: what is the truth of Iran’s death toll?

Does anyone else know about the numbers and what happened? This is really horrific!
