Iran Sees Widespread Anti-Government Protests Amid Economic Crisis and Clashes

Fresh anti-government protests have spread across Iran, fueled by a deepening economic crisis including soaring prices and currency collapse. Demonstrators are targeting the clerical leadership and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei with slogans like "Mullahs must leave Iran." Clashes with security forces have resulted in multiple reported deaths, including civilians and a Basij member. Authorities have described some detained individuals as "ringleaders," while President Pezeshkian acknowledged protesters' "legitimate demands."
