00:00Yesterday, calm still prevailed in Tehran and in several provincial cities where I was able to speak with residents.
00:06For the fifth consecutive day, there was a fairly significant presence of security forces, especially in the evenings.
00:13This presence is less visible in the capital, stronger in provincial cities.
00:19Official media continued to announce daily arrests of people described as members of terrorist groups
00:24or accused of attacking and setting fire to official buildings, banks or even mosques across the country, according to the official version, of course.
00:34The exiled Crown Prince Reza Pallavi issued a new call for people to chant slogans against the authorities this evening,
00:42tomorrow evening and the day after tomorrow, that is for three nights, at 8pm local time,
00:48apparently without calling on people to go down to the streets.
00:50We'll see if this leads to a resumption of the protest movement.
00:58Many people who had taken part in the demonstrations have become disillusioned by President Trump's statement.
01:04He said last night he had decided not to intervene in Iran and thanked the Iranian regime for backing away from plans to execute protesters.
