Summary

The Iranian government is implementing risky economic concessions in an effort to address the demands of protesters calling for political change, anti-corruption measures, and relief from rising living costs, as reported by The Guardian. The protests, now in their ninth day, have spread to 26 provinces, with a US-based human rights group claiming over 20 deaths and nearly 1,000 arrests.
