>12,000 and 20,000 protesters
Dawg Pakistan wasn't even able to arrest that many people in the past 2 years worth of protests against an army with actual firepower that has been working overtime to get people killed.
It even took Gaza a solid month to reach those numbers under constant bombing campaigns and a wall of IFVs.
Iran's internet has only been complete blackout for 4 days, so unless they decided to unload several war days worth of ammunition in a purge killing spree, this isn't possible. AP is reporting 2.7k.

News orgs are getting orders from ellison getting orders from the administration. Apparently they do not feel they need people in reality to be on board with iran war 2 so they just supply obviously obscenely inflated figures.

2.7k is most likely a big overestimate.
