Mass protests have erupted across Iran calling for “death to the dictator” over the regime’s economic crisis.
Tear gas was used to disperse protesters as shops shuttered in Tehran’s Grand Bazaar and main markets.
University students called on their peers to join the demonstrations, while chants echoed from rooftops in several cities and the Iranian rial plunged to record lows, all against the backdrop of ongoing threats from Israel and the US.
