Iran’s Supreme Leader has called for swift trials and possible execution of anti-government protesters. The warning comes amid nationwide unrest.
In response, former U.S. President Donald Trump threatened strong action against Iran. He did not specify what that action might be.
The protests began after the death of a young woman in police custody. They have grown into a major challenge to Iran’s leadership.
The regime has restricted internet access and used force to try to stop the demonstrations. The latest threat of executions signals a significant escalation.
