Iranian Students Reignite Anti-Government Protests For Third Day

Iranian students held anti-government protests at several universities for the third consecutive day, according to videos published online and verified by RFE/RL.

The new protests are the first since the authorities killed thousands of people in an unprecedented crackdown on nationwide demonstrations against Iran's clerical rulers last month.

The renewed unrest comes as Iran braces for possible US military action. US President Donald Trump has warned Tehran against further violence against demonstrators and threatened to strike the Islamic republic over its refusal to abandon its nuclear program.
