UN CHIEF’S SOS: STOP THE KILLING IN IRAN’S ECONOMIC RAGE PROTESTS

Day 10 of Tehran fury over skyrocketing costs, UN boss António Guterres “deeply saddened” by deadly clashes, injuries; demands no more lives lost.

Spox Stéphane Dujarric: Uphold free speech, assembly let folks air grievances peacefully. All sides, region-wide: Cool tensions, dodge instability.

Vids from Tehran/Yasuj Monday; activists say protests hit most provinces last week. Rights tallies: 20+ dead (3 kids), hundreds nabbed (minors too) in security crackdown.

Trump Friday: “Locked/loaded” to “rescue” if killings persist. Iran shot back to UN: Slam his “unlawful threats.”
