Iran’s crown prince says ahead of protests that inaction against Tehran encourages bullies

Reza Pahlavi urges global protests and calls for humanitarian intervention to stop regime repression after at least 7,005 protesters were killed, rights groups say.

  • On Friday, Reza Pahlavi, exiled son of Iran's last shah, renewed calls for international intervention at the Munich Security Conference and urged Iranians to continue demonstrations.
  • Reports say 7,005 people were killed in the crackdown, according to rights groups, while Iranian authorities describe the protests as hijacked by "terrorists".
  • On Thursday, Pahlavi urged Iranians to chant from homes and rooftops at 8 pm on Saturday and Sunday, and called for sanctions and diaspora protests in Munich, Toronto, and Los Angeles.
  • The US has threatened military intervention while shifting pressure toward nuclear programme diplomacy as President Donald Trump positioned a US aircraft carrier group in the Middle East and said he would soon send another.
  • Many protest chants called for the monarchy's return while Pahlavi, 65, has faced criticism for his 2023 Israeli visit amid a divided Iranian opposition.
