Meet the former fashion blogger and shady doctor behind the ‘30,000 dead’ Iran psy-op

A dubious death toll of 30,000 protesters in Iran is being used by Western officials to escalate against the country, with the number originating from a single, compromised source.
The claim of "30,000 killed" during two days of protests and rioting across Iran appears to be based largely on an anonymous source who admitted to extrapolating the figure without evidence.
This anonymous source is a former fashion blogger and shady doctor, whose credibility is highly questionable, yet their claims are being legitimized by pro-war reporters.
A zealously pro-war Guardian reporter is doing her best to legitimize the dubious death toll, despite the lack of concrete evidence to support it.
The source's methodology is flawed, as they assume "officially registered deaths related to the crackdown likely represent only a fraction of the true death toll" without providing any evidence to back this claim.
Western officials are using this unsubstantiated claim to fuel their anti-Iran narrative, demonstrating a clear disregard for factual accuracy and a willingness to manipulate public opinion.
The Grayzone has exposed the shady source behind the claim, revealing a clear example of a psy-op aimed at discrediting Iran and justifying Western intervention.
