Western media outlets are reporting that up to 2,000 people have been killed during recent unrest in Iran. But where do these figures originate, and how credible are they?
In this interview, Esteban Carrillo, Head of News at The Cradle, examines the sources behind these claims, the role of Western-funded organizations, and how unverifiable numbers are repeatedly treated as established fact. The discussion also explores U.S. sanctions, political threats against Iran, and historical parallels with media narratives surrounding Venezuela and other sanctioned states.
