00:01Footage on social media showed protesters once again taking to the streets of Iran's capital, Tehran, on Saturday night.
00:09They did so despite an intensifying crackdown and with the internet and phone lines cut.
00:15The son of the former Shah, exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi, has voiced his support for demonstrators.
00:21Our goal is no longer merely to come to the streets.
00:26The goal is to prepare for seizing the centres of cities and holding them.
00:32The unrest was prompted in December by anger over the collapse of the Iranian currency.
00:37It quickly turned political, with demonstrators calling for an end to clerical rule.
00:43Also expressing support for those taking to the streets is the son of detained Iranian Nobel Peace Prize winner Nages Mohammadi.
00:50Speaking from Paris, he noted that security forces killed hundreds of people in protests in 2019.

01:12Iran's authorities have signaled an intensified clampdown amid warnings from US President Donald Trump,
01:19who has repeatedly threatened to intervene.
01:22On Saturday, Iran's Attorney General warned that anyone taking part in demonstrations
01:27will be considered an enemy of God, a death penalty charge.
