While some Iranian opposition and exile groups have claimed tens of thousands killed, the U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA) in February reported \u200baround 7,000 deaths including 6,500 protesters.<br><br>Trump encouraged protesters to overthrow the Iranian government when the war began with U.S. and Israeli airstrikes in February. Rights groups say the Iranian government has continued to crack down on opponents since then.<br>Trump also said Iran should compensate families of the 17 U.S. sailors killed in an October 2000 attack in Yemen on the naval vessel USS Cole, which has been blamed on al Qaeda, not \u200bIran.<br>&#8220;Also, with respect to the Iran negotiations, Iran should be responsible for the damages and death caused to the people of Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and Gaza!&#8221; Trump wrote in a Truth \u200bSocial post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Iran earlier said it was nearing a final pact with Oman defining new shipping lanes between them through the Strait of Hormuz but repeated that the U.S. must meet conditions, including compensation and \u200can end to \u2060sanctions and military threats before the key waterway is reopened.<br>The strait, through which about a fifth of global oil and liquefied natural gas flowed prior to the conflict, has been effectively blocked since the war began, pushing up oil prices and inflation.<br>TRUMP UNDER PRESSURE<br>Ironically, the agreement with Oman would give Tehran more leverage over the key waterway than it had before the war began.<br>Trump is under pressure to end a war that is deeply unpopular at home ahead of midterm elections in November, and high fuel prices are a top issue in rural areas that have \u200bbacked him in the past.<br>&#8220;What you&#8217;re seeing here \u200bis the beginning of a capitulation,&#8221; \u2060Democratic U.S. Representative Bill Keating said on CNN. &#8220;This is reality.
