Why are people protesting in Iran? | BBC Newscast


Today marks the thirteenth consecutive day of widespread anti-government protests in Iran.

Iran’s top security body has warned that the Iranian judiciary and security forces will show "no leniency towards saboteurs", amid internet blackouts.

Adam is joined in the Newscast studio by BBC chief international correspondent, Lyse Doucet, to discuss the context and history of the unrest in Iran, plus President Trump’s warnings to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his response.

Also in the studio is New Statesman political editor Ailbhe Rea and The House Mag deputy editor Sienna Rodgers, to wrap up the first calendar week of UK Politics.
