Watch: Trump vows ‘very strong action’ if Iran executes protesters
President Trump warned of “very strong action” against Iran if it executes protesters, amid reports of over 2,400 anti-government demonstrators killed during a crackdown. The case of Erfan Soltani, facing imminent execution, highlights the rapid judicial processes used by Iranian authorities. Trump is gathering data on the violence, which has seen protests across 180 cities, and has indicated potential military responses. Meanwhile, the Iranian government accuses the US of seeking pretexts for intervention while the situation deteriorates dramatically.
