As the death toll in the protests that have been ongoing in Iran for 10 days rises to 36, a striking image was captured during the demonstrations supported by the US and Israel. It was observed that anti-regime protesters changed the name of a street to "Donald Trump Street."
The Iran Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA) reported that the number of people who lost their lives in the protests that began due to economic issues has risen to 36.
In a report published on the website of HRANA, based in the United States, information was provided about the protests that have been ongoing in the country for 10 days. According to this report, during this period, protests occurred in 27 out of the 31 provinces of the country, resulting in the deaths of 34 protesters and 2 individuals affiliated with security forces.
MORE THAN 2,000 ARRESTS
In total, dozens of people were injured in protests that occurred at 285 locations across the country, and 2,076 individuals were arrested. It was noted that the injuries largely resulted from being hit by rubber and plastic bullets. No official statement has been made by Iranian authorities regarding those who died or were injured in the protests.
THE STREET NAME WAS CHANGED TO "DONALD TRUMP"
A video recorded during the protests made a significant impact. It was seen that the protesters, openly supported by the U.S. and Israel, changed the name of one of the streets in Iran to "Donald Trump Street."
In a video recorded with a mobile phone, one of the protesters was seen pasting the relevant poster over the street name sign, and the footage circulated became a hot topic in Iran.
PROTESTS IN IRAN
Protests that began on December 28, 2025, due to the significant devaluation of the local currency against foreign exchange rates and economic issues, spread to many cities in the country, starting from the Tehran Grand Bazaar. The Tasnim News Agency reported that the number of injured police officers in the protests has risen to 568, and the number of militia forces (Basij) injured has reached 66.
Recently, U.S. President Donald Trump stated in remarks regarding the protests in Iran that if the protesters were killed, the U.S. would rush to help and deliver a severe blow to the Tehran administration. In a statement made by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on January 5, it was announced that there would be no tolerance shown to the protesters.
