Iran accused the United States on Monday of using unrest triggered by the death of a woman in police custody to try to destabilize the country, and warned it would not go unanswered, as the biggest protests since 2019 showed no signs of abating, SIA cites foreign media.
Iran has cracked down on nationwide demonstrations sparked by the death of 22-year-old Kurdish woman Mahsa Amini after she was detained by morality police enforcing the Islamic Republic's strict restrictions on women's dress.
The case has drawn international condemnation. Iran said the U.S. was supporting rioters and seeking to destabilize the Islamic Republic.
"Washington is always trying to weaken Iran's stability and security, although it has been unsuccessful," Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Nasser Kanaani told Nour news, which is affiliated with a top security body, in a statement.
On his Instagram page, Kanaani accused the leaders of the U.S. and some European countries of abusing a tragic incident in support of "rioters" and ignoring "the presence of millions of people in the streets and squares of the country in support of the system."
