The Jerusalem Post's must-listen news roundup with Shifra Jacobs—the top stories, clear and concise. 

The West keeps mistaking regime survival tactics for reform; the Iranians know better and have paid with their lives.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has described the ongoing protests as “unimaginable,” urged authorities to “treat this disease” rather than “erase the issue.” 

Graham claimed that the Iranian regime is currently at its weakest point and that the time has come for US military intervention.

There is a crucial fact that Western observers consistently forget: The worst violence against Iranian protesters has always occurred under so-called “reformist” governments. 

An estimated 250,000 people rallied in Munich against Iran’s Islamist regime as part of a global day of action called by Reza Pahlavi during the Munich Security Conference.

Pahlavi said that there were signs that the Iranian government was on the brink of collapse and that an attack could weaken it or accelerate its fall.

"Ukraine supports the Iranian people as they are fighting for their future; we also express our sympathy to all the victims of the Iranian regime," Zelensky said in a statement.

In Israel, we understand what a free Iran could mean for the region — the possibility of peace, and the end of a regime that has posed a threat to Israel for decades.

“The sorrow of the mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, and friends of the victims and the injured of the recent events in Iran has been with me,” former Iranian empress Farah Pahlavi wrote on X.
