The Zahedan massacre,[1][2] also known as Bloody Friday (Persian: جمعه خونین, romanized: Jom'e-ye Xunin)(Balochi: زائدانءِ ھۏنݔن آدݔنَگ),[3] was a series of violent crackdowns starting with protesters gathering and chanting in front of a police station near the Great Mosalla of Zahedan, Iran on 30 September 2022 leading to many casualties.[4][5][3]
Security forces opened fire on protesters, violently cracked down on protesters in Zahedan, and later opened fire on worshipers holding the Friday Prayers in the Jameh Mosque of Makki, leading to street clashes resulting in at least 96 protesters killed and 300 injured.[6][7][4][8]
The clashes were mainly in response to the alleged rape of a 15-year-old Baloch girl in June by Colonel Ebrahim Kouchakzai,[9] the commander of the police force in Chabahar, and the 16 September 2022 death of Mahsa Amini following her arrest by the Guidance Patrol.
Schools in Zahedan and Nosratabad were shut down temporarily due to concerns for the welfare of schoolchildren.[10]
