Trump threatens Iran as more protest deaths reported
![]() 1132 Monday, 05 January, 2026, 11:18 President Donald Trump warned Iran on Sunday that it would get "hit very hard" by the United States if more protesters die during demonstrations that have entered a second week. "We're watching it very closely. If they start killing people like they have in the past, I think they're going to get hit very hard by the United States," Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One. Sparked by a cost-of-living crisis, the protests began with a shopkeeper's strike in Tehran on December 28. |
