Protests have erupted in Iran, initially sparked by economic issues like a crashing rial and rising prices, and have escalated into political demands targeting the clerical establishment. An online campaign using hashtags like "Free Iran" has gained significant traction, particularly among users in Western countries, with hundreds of thousands of posts tracked. Former US President Donald Trump issued a warning to Tehran regarding the treatment of protesters. The digital nature of this movement, with significant activity originating outside Iran, mirrors other geopolitically influenced online campaigns.
