Iran is facing one of its most dangerous moments in years as state television labels protesters as “armed terrorists,” a nationwide internet blackout stretches beyond 72 hours, and authorities declare three days of national mourning. Officials have issued chilling warnings that demonstrators could face the death penalty, sparking outrage worldwide. <br /> <br />The crisis is drawing intense international attention. The UN Secretary-General says he is shocked by reports of violence and urges restraint, reminding Tehran that peaceful protest is a protected right under international law. <br /> <br />At the same time, tensions are escalating beyond Iran’s borders. Under President Donald Trump, the United States is signaling a far more aggressive posture — openly discussing sanctions, cyberattacks, and even potential military action. <br /> <br />Iran’s response has been blunt and defiant. Lawmakers warn that any attack would make U.S. military bases and Israel legitimate targets, raising fears that the situation could spiral into a wider regional conflict. <br /> <br />So where does Iran stand now — and how close is this crisis to exploding into open confrontation? <br /> <br /> <br />#IranCrisis #IranProtests #IranInternetShutdown #TrumpIran #USIranTensions #IranWarning #MiddleEastCrisis #IranVsUS #BreakingNews #IranBlackout #UNResponseIran #IranSanctions #IranThreatensUS #IsraelIran #TrumpForeignPolicy #IranUnrest #IranUpdates<br /><br />~HT.178~GR.122~
