00:00The streets of Tehran and other Iranian cities are ablaze with one of the largest waves of
00:11protests in years as public anger grows over worsening living conditions met by heightened
00:17security measures and rising fears of the situation sliding into violence.
00:21As the protests spread, Washington has stepped into the crisis. President Trump has once again
00:30threatened to strike Iran with severe force if authorities begin killing protesters.
00:36I've told them that if they do anything bad to these people, we're going to hit them very hard.
00:41The threat followed clashes that erupted between security forces and protesters in several Iranian
00:49cities amid human rights reports of casualties, including eight minors. Local media have also
00:56reported that at least 21 people were killed, including members of the security forces.
01:03Iran is witnessing protests described as the largest since demonstrations began two weeks ago,
01:09driven by rising prices and deteriorating economic conditions as authorities have moved to shut
01:15down internet services across the country.
