Hackers Hijack Iranian State TV with Exiled Prince's Message

Hackers took over Iranian state television satellite feeds early Monday. They broadcast a message from the country's exiled crown prince, Reza Pahlavi. The hacked footage called on Iran's security forces to lay down their arms. "Do not point your weapons at the people," it urged. Videos of the broadcast quickly spread online. This cyberattack is the latest disruption following nationwide protests in Iran. A violent government crackdown has followed those demonstrations. Activist groups now say the death toll from the state's response is at least 3,919. They warn the true number is likely much higher and will continue to grow.
