According to social media photographs verified by AFP, protesters in Tehran gathered on major avenues of the Iranian capital as part of a large-scale protest action driven by dissatisfaction with the rising cost of living. Persian-language TV channels based outside Iran and other social media published footage of large-scale protests in other cities, including Tabriz in the north and the holy city of Mashhad in the east.
US President Donald Trump threatened to take harsh measures against Iran if its authorities “start killing people” protesting in a country where an economic crisis, born of suffocating US sanctions, has led to increased civil unrest.
