As activists say Iran's anti-government unrest has seen almost 120 people killed, the nation's rulers threaten protesters, and U.S. forces across the Mideast.

Iran protests turn more violent with 65 reportedly killed by Friday and over 2,300 arrested as authorities imposed an internet blackout amid nationwide anti-regime unrest.

For a third night in a row, nationwide antigovernment protests rocked Iran, according to witnesses and videos verified by The New York Times, posted on BBC Persian and social media, even as the government intensified its crackdown and the military said it would take to the streets in response to the unrest.

Protests in Iran have continued despite threats from the government to crack down. Online videos show demonstrators protesting Friday night, even after authorities shut down the internet and cut phone lines.

Donald Trump has warned Iran that the US is “ready to help” protesters in the Islamic Republic on a day the country’s clerical regime tightened its clampdown on demonstrations, with claims that 100 “armed rioters” were arrested.

The protests, which started out with economic grievances, have now morphed into one of the biggest challenges the Islamic Republic has faced in its 47-year history.

In a serious challenge to Iran’s authoritarian government, angry protests have spread from the markets and universities of major cities to the impoverished towns in the hinterland.
