Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has urged law enforcement to “resolutely” deal with protests in the country after nine days of mobilization. More than 40 people have died in the protests so far..

Abroad, demonstrations in support of the Iranian movement were organized on Saturday in several countries – Canada, the United States, Chile, France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Iraq.

Today, the Iranian Foreign Ministry summoned the British and Norwegian ambassadors for “clarifications,” according to the semi-official ISNA news agency.

The British ambassador was summoned due to the “hostile nature” of the London-based Iranian-language media, while the Norwegian ambassador was summoned due to alleged “interference” by the speaker of the Scandinavian country’s parliament in Iran’s internal affairs.

The protests began on September 16 when Mahsa Amini died, three days after she was brought in by Tehran’s vice police on charges of not following a strict dress code. These are the largest protests that have taken place in the country since November 2019, which were caused by a rise in the price of gasoline at the height of the economic crisis. At that time, 230 people were officially killed, according to Amnesty International – more than 300 people.
