    Iranians sent us photos showing at least 13 shotgun shells made by the Franco-Italian company Cheddite recovered from protests. Meanwhile, EU sanctions ban the sale of any equipment that may be used for "internal repression" in Iran.

    Settler attacks have increased against Palestinians in the West Bank. The violence is of a proportion not seen since 2005. The FRANCE 24 Observers team spoke to a member of an NGO settlement watch team to learn more about the latest wave of violence.

    When fired at a distance using special ammunition like plastic pellets, shotguns can be considered “less-lethal” weapons used in crowd control. But that’s not how they have been used in Iran.
