Protests in Iran have now continued for two weeks, with the government acknowledging the unrest despite a harsh crackdown. The internet and phone lines are down, making it hard to gauge the situation from abroad. The U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency reports at least 72 people have been killed and over 2,300 detained. Iranian state TV is reporting on security force casualties while maintaining control. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei signals a clampdown, and Tehran warns protesters could face death-penalty charges. U.S. President Donald Trump expressed support for the protesters on social media.
