Three killed in Iran fuel price unrest
Three security personnel have been killed by “rioters” in Iran, the latest deaths in protests that showed no sign of subsiding yesterday, despite a wave of arrests and an internet shutdown. A shock decision to impose petrol price hikes sparked the nationwide demonstrations in which officials say at least five people have been killed. The United Nations expressed alarm yesterday “that the use of live ammunition has allegedly caused a significant number of deaths across the country”.
