Iran hangs alleged Israeli spy, leans into anti-Western bluster as it tries to quell deadly protests
Iran says it has hanged a man who spied for Israel and is ready for a new military confrontation as it struggles to tamp down domestic unrest.
The protests are diffuse and largely leaderless, and the president's efforts at mediation — and the killings and arrests by security forces — haven't persuaded the demonstrators to stay off the streets.
Protesters angry over Iran's ailing economy have conducted a sit-in at Tehran's Grand Bazaar. Security forces fired tear gas and dispersed demonstrators as the market shut down.
Protesters in Iran burn a Qassem Soleimani statue, one day before the anniversary of his death, as nationwide unrest escalates.
