Description
Iran is in the middle of nationwide unrest with protests reported in over 400 cities. As the death toll rises, the Iranian government has cut off most of the country from the internet, making accurate figures difficult to get.
At the same time, the U.S. is moving major naval forces into the region, including the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, as President Trump warns Iran’s leaders and signals that military options are on the table. In this video, we lay out what’s happening inside Iran, what the blackout means, and why the U.S. is moving military assets to the region.
