Human rights group reports rising deaths in Iran protests
The unrest began on December 28 at Tehran’s Grand Bazaar, fueled by the sharp depreciation of the Iranian rial and worsening economic conditions, before spreading to multiple cities across the nation. Iranian authorities have accused the US and Israel of supporting what they describe as “armed rioters,” who have attacked public spaces nationwide.
US President Donald Trump said Sunday that his administration is closely monitoring the situation and considering "very strong options." "We'll make a determination," he stated, noting he has been receiving hourly updates, without specifying when or how the US might intervene.
