Iranian security forces have been targeting women at protests by firing bullets at their faces, breasts and genitals, it has been revealed.
Doctors and nurses revealed to the Guardian that women have been arriving in hospitals with different wounds to men and had been presenting with shotgun fire to their faces, breasts and genitals.
“I treated a woman in her early 20s, who was shot in her genitals by two pellets. Ten other pellets were lodged in her inner thigh. These 10 pellets were easily removed, but those two pellets were a challenge because they were wedged in between her urethra and vaginal opening,” one doctor told the Guardian.
