Reza Pahlavi

Iranian media reported the arrest of an alleged Mossad affiliate amid expanding protests, internet disruptions, campus raids, and growing chants against Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

As the death toll rises, with more than 30 dead already, one brave protester says, “We have taken our lives in our hands as our weapon.”

At least 15 protesters and one security force member have been killed in seven days of nationwide protests in Iran, according to HRANA, though the true toll is hard to verify.

Iran’s protests have spread nationwide, uniting workers, merchants, and students in a direct challenge to clerical rule.

All around Iran, citizens rise against tyranny, taking a risk for freedom and a better future.

Pahlavi added that he has a plan for a "stable transition" in a scenario where the Islamic Republic regime would be toppled, where the country's citizens would take to the streets in millions.

By investing in Iran’s future at this critical juncture, Israel would not only earn the enduring gratitude and goodwill of millions of Iranians, but it would also secure a strong, strategic friend.

This episode of The Deep Dive covers Iran’s unrest and the fight for freedom, the question Israel cannot ignore, and the human element of soldiers returning home.

After five days of demonstrations, some analysts and observers see support for the son of the deposed Shah, Reza Pahlavi, as the main factor, and others cite economic grievances.

'The United States of America will come to their rescue,' President Donald Trump announced about the protestors on Truth Social.
