RSMS Hour 1 | Tension begins to heat up against US and Iran

Tensions have surged between the U.S. and Iran as Iran braces for a brutal crackdown on pro-democracy protesters. Reports indicate over 2,500 fatalities and mounting unrest. The U.S. has started repositioning military personnel from the Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, and President Trump has warned Iran that “very strong action” could follow if executions proceed. Amid a partial de-escalation, Iran has temporarily halted proposed executions, though officials maintain that all options remain on the table. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
