Trump Warns Iran and Offers Support to Protesters

US President Donald Trump has threatened military intervention in response to ongoing protests in Iran, where at least seven people have died amid unrest triggered by economic issues, including the collapse of the rial currency. Iranian officials warned that U.S. interference could destabilize the region and jeopardize American interests. The protests, now in their sixth day, have sparked chants against the Iranian government, reminiscent of the 2022 demonstrations following Mahsa Amini’s death. Despite attempts by Iran’s reformist government to negotiate, economic conditions continue to worsen.
