Iran Protests Intensify: Death Toll Hits 35 Amid US Intervention Warning

• Iran protests enter second week with death toll rising to at least 35, as reported by Human Rights Activists News Agency.
• Over 1,200 people have been detained, and demonstrations have spread to more than 250 locations across 27 provinces.
• The protests are fueled by a failing economy, drawing a warning from US President Donald Trump about potential intervention if protesters are violently killed.
• Injuries include 250 police officers and 45 members of the Basij force, according to the semi-official Fars news agency.
• These are the biggest protests since 2022, though not as widespread as those following Mahsa Amini's death.
