Iran Protests Escalate Amid Airspace Closures

Iran Protests Escalate Amid Airspace Closures

Iran is experiencing a lot of protests, and the government is trying to control the situation.

The airspace around Tehran was temporarily closed, which affected flights from airlines like IndiGo and Air India.

Pakistani students in Iran said they heard gunshots and were confined to their campuses.

The U.S. President, Donald Trump, has been talking about the protests and has threatened to intervene if the situation gets worse.

Iran's government has said they won't execute protesters, which seems to have calmed things down a bit.

Many countries, including India, have advised their citizens to leave Iran because it's not safe right now.

The internet in Iran has been cut off, making it hard for people to communicate.

Rights groups say many people have been killed and detained during the protests.
