TEHRAN: US President Donald Trump, while addressing the rioters in Iran, has taken to his Social Media Platform Tuesday (13th January) to state, “Iranian Patriots, keep protesting – take over your institutions!!! Save the names of the killers and abusers. They will pay a big price. I have cancelled all meetings with Iranian Officials until the senseless killing of protesters stops. Help is on its way!”
Two thousand people (including officers) lost their lives in Iran since 28th Dec, 2025, while thousands (termed as Trump/Mossad agents by Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei) continue to manifest violently expressing their anger at the rising cost of living and depreciating currency, which are inevitable results of Western sanctions.
Ali Larijani, Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) chief, responding to Trump’s statement wrote on X: “We announce the names of the main murderers of the Iranian people: 1- Trump 2- Netanyahu.” Earlier too, while reacting to Trump’s Social Media warning, he took to the X to state: “Trump should know that US interference in this internal matter would mean destabilising the entire region and destroying America’s interests.”
It is pertinent to mention here, when Israel and USA attacked and destroyed its nuclear facilities during 12 day war that commenced on 13th June, 2025, Iran barely managed to kill 28 Israelis by means of its useless missiles. Whereas, hundreds of their nuclear scientists and officials were eliminated along with the nuclear infrastructure.
Son of the deposed king of Iran, self-exiled crown prince Reza Pahlavi, taking to the X, had asked his supporters on 9th Jan, to manifest against the regime, that had resorted to blackout internet in order to supress their protests.
According to Internet monitor Netblocks, authorities had imposed a total connectivity blackout on 8th January. Supreme leader of Iran Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that those manifesting on the streets were attempting to please Trump whose hands are soaked with Irani blood.
As Khamenei maintained that the regime would not give up, thousands of rioters, chanting slogans such as ‘death to the dictator’ are setting official batiments on fire either financed by regime-changers or genuinely angered over the inflation, rising cost of living and ever depreciating currency.
Protests have spread across Iran since 28th December, beginning in response to soaring inflation, and quickly turning political with protesters demanding an end to clerical rule. Authorities accuse the US and Israel of fomenting unrest.
Answering to Trump’s threat to Iran, Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs maintained: “Those who plan to use externally inspired unrest as a pretext for repeating the aggression against Iran committed in June 2025 must be aware of the disastrous consequences of such actions for the situation in the Middle East and global international security.”
Major-General Amir Hatami, Irani Chief of Army, taking to the Social Media claimed: “We are more capable now than during 12-day war with Israel…The preparations made in the past six months after the 12-day imposed war are fully appropriate.”
