New videos from Iran show a dramatic escalation as nationwide protests enter a sixth day, with scenes once considered unthinkable inside the Islamic Republic. Footage shows a Shiite seminary set ablaze, a statue of Qassem Soleimani torched on the eve of his death anniversary, and demonstrators burning copies of the Quran and Shia prayer books during overnight unrest. From Tehran to Qom, from Khuzestan to Fars, crowds chant slogans openly calling for the fall of clerical rule and the return of the Pahlavi monarchy — marking the first time in five decades that pro-monarchy slogans have dominated Iran’s streets. At least 6 protesters have been confirmed killed in clashes with security forces, with reports of more deaths emerging from other cities. As Iranian authorities remain silent, reactions pour in from abroad, with the United States, Britain, Israel weighing in. Watch for more details.
