<p>It could be as high as 26, an anchor suggested, though he did not elaborate or say how he reached that figure.</p>
<p>“Unfortunately, 26 people and police officers present at the scene of these events lost their lives,” he said, adding official statistics will be released later.</p>
<p>Clashes between Iranian security forces and protesters have killed at least 11 people since the violence erupted over the weekend, according to a tally by the Associated Press.</p>

<p>The demonstrations in Iran began as an emotional outpouring over the death of Mahsa Amini, a young woman held by the country’s morality police for allegedly violating its strictly enforced dress code.</p>
<p>The police say she died of a heart attack and was not mistreated, but her family has cast doubt on that account.</p>
<p>Iran’s state-run media this week reported demonstrations of hundreds of people in at least 13 cities, including the capital, Tehran.</p>
<p>Iranian authorities imposed some restrictions on the internet and blocked access to WhatsApp and Instagram.</p>
<p>People in Tehran and some other cities planed to hold a counter-protest rally after the Friday prayer.</p>
