DUBAI, Jan 11 (Reuters) – Deaths from two ‍weeks of protests in Iran have risen to more ‌than 500, ‌U.S.-based rights group HRANA said on Sunday.

Its latest spreadsheet – based ​on activists inside ‍and outside ​Iran – showed ​490 protesters ‍and 48 security personnel killed, plus 10,000 arrests.

Reuters could not ‍independently confirm the figures and Iranian ‍authorities ‍have ​not given ​tolls ⁠from the unrest ‌it blames on “rioters” being encouraged by foreign powers.
