Iran warned its people not to stage further demonstrations after a weekend of protests that had President Trump sending a message to the country’s leaders: “DO NOT KILL YOUR PROTESTERS...the World is watching.”
TEHRAN—Iranian authorities warned protesters not to stage further antigovernment demonstrations, as a video appeared to show security forces using tear gas to contain protests over the weekend.
The demonstrations broke out after the Iranian military said Saturday that it unintentionally shot down a Ukrainian passenger airliner last week, killing all 176 people on board, after denying for days that it was responsible. The protesters denounced what they called lying and incompetence by the country’s leadership.
