VERY GRAPHIC - woman shot on the streets dies. VERY GRAPHIC:
"At 19:05 June 20th Place: Karekar Ave., at the corner crossing Khosravi St. and Salehi st. A young woman who was standing aside with her father watching the protests was shot by a basij member hiding on the rooftop of a civilian house. He had clear shot at the girl and could not miss her. However, he aimed straight her heart.I am a doctor, so I rushed to try to save her. But the impact of the gunshot was so fierce that the bullet had blasted inside the victim's chest, and she died in less than 2 minutes. The protests were going on about 1 kilometers away in the main street and some of the protesting crowd were running from tear gass used among them, towards Salehi St.The film is shot by my friend who was standing beside me. Please let the world know."

currently about halfway down the page - looking for a direct link or an embeddable one - so far youtube has been taking this video down as quickly as people keep posting it back.

Woman: It made me cry to see this. Of course it also was shown on our tv. She just was standing aside, not even protesting actively. :-(( So I guess they (Basij) brought their "message". :-(((
I really hope the protests will succeed in the end (it might take a long time or not) and that all the people that died already did not die for nothing. Well, it is not for nothing, the whole world now sees them standing up.
