I had also received the video from the previous post but couldn't verify it. However, I also received the videos in this post from another citizen in Qom who reported that a person had been killed. Though when I showed them the video from the previous post, they said it wasn't the same person. Update: They sent me the full name, shop number, and mobile number regarding the citizen seen in the previous post's video. I still can't verify this. Government channels also wrote: "Statement from Qom Province Security Council following today's unrest Following today's unrest that caused disruption to public order for the honorable people of Qom, one of the elements from a terrorist group who was carrying a grenade with the intent to cause casualties from the unrest had the grenade explode in his hands, resulting in his death." 📡 @VahidOnline
