Iran protests: witnesses allege live fire on crowds

Witnesses in Iran say security forces have used live ammunition against unarmed demonstrators as protests spread across the country over worsening economic conditions and political grievances. One protester, identified here as Omid to protect his safety, described scenes of violence in a small city in southern Iran where he has been taking part in demonstrations. Speaking in a trembling voice and fearful of being identified, the man in his early forties said he saw security personnel firing directly at crowds. According to his account, protesters were confronted by forces using Kalashnikov-type assault rifles. He said people collapsed where they stood, despite posing no armed threat. “We are facing a harsh system with nothing but our voices,” he explained, describing the protests as a struggle carried out with “empty hands”. The BBC has received multiple testimonies echoing Omid’s claims, pointing to […]

Ousted Iran shah’s son urges protesters to seize and hold city centres

Reza Pahlavi, the US based son of Iran’s ousted shah, has called on Iranians to step up their demonstrations by seizing and holding city centres during protests. In a video message on social media, he said the goal was no longer just to appear on the streets but to prepare to capture and control key urban areas.​ Pahlavi urged protesters to turn out in large numbers over the weekend and to gather from 6 pm carrying national flags and symbols. He framed the latest demonstrations as part of a broader “revolution” against the Islamic Republic and said he was preparing to return to Iran when conditions allow.​ He also appealed to workers in strategic sectors such as transport, oil, gas and energy to begin nationwide strikes. According to him, industrial action combined with mass protests would increase pressure on the […]

Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei says Iran will not back down as protests continue across the country over rising prices and economic hardship. The latest unrest has spread to major cities, with demonstrators complaining about high inflation, a weak currency and the rising cost of living.​ Khamenei accused some protesters of acting on behalf of foreign enemies and warned that the state would not tolerate what it calls rioters attacking public property.

Security Forces Eliminate Notorious Bandit Leader Kachalla Naallah In Sokoto

A combined team of security operatives has neutralised a notorious bandit kingpin, Kachalla Naallah, in Isa Local Government Area of Sokoto State. The operation is part of intensified campaigns against banditry and kidnapping across the North West region.​ Naallah, long known for leading violent attacks, kidnappings and cattle rustling in parts of Sokoto and neighbouring states, was tracked down during a targeted raid on his camp. Security sources said he had been on the radar of intelligence agencies for months due to his role in coordinating assaults on rural communities and highways.​ The latest success comes days after troops of the Nigerian Army’s 8 Division killed another notorious commander, Kachalla Kallamu, a close ally of wanted bandit leader Bello Turji, in Sabon Birni Local Government Area. Together, the neutralisation of Kallamu and Naallah is seen as a significant blow to […]

Troops quell communal violence, neutralise four militias in Taraba

Nigerian security forces have put down a fresh outbreak of communal violence in Taraba State, neutralising four armed militias in a decisive operation. The troops moved in after clashes erupted between rival groups in one of the state’s flashpoint communities, preventing what officials say could have been a far more devastating escalation.​ According to security sources, the operation combined ground troops with intelligence-led raids on suspected militia hideouts. Weapons were recovered and several suspects were arrested as soldiers fanned out across the area to stop reprisals and reopen key roads.​ The latest incident comes against the backdrop of recurring communal crises in Taraba, often tied to disputes over land, grazing routes and traditional authority. The army’s 6 Brigade and other security agencies have recently intensified patrols and peace efforts in Bali, Gassol and other tension-prone local government areas.​ Community leaders […]

 Iraqi Forces, Displaced People Vote Early Ahead of Election

Iraqi security forces and thousands of internally displaced people began voting early on November 9, ahead of the nation’s scheduled parliamentary election on November 11, 2025. According to Iraq’s Independent High Electoral Commission, polls were opened for roughly 1.3 million security officers, who will be engaged in election day duties. Additionally, over 26,500 displaced people were eligible to vote in this early ballot. This parliamentary election is Iraq’s sixth since 2003 and sees more than 7,740 candidates, with a third being women, vying for seats in the 329-member parliament. The revived electoral law is expected to favour larger parties, though 75 independents are competing for a place. Analysts express concern about possible low voter turnout, reflecting a trend of voter apathy since Iraq’s 2003 transition from dictatorship. Influential Shiite leaders and former prime ministers are expected to play key roles, […]
