“Help is on the way,” Trump tells Iranian protesters

“Help is on the way,” Trump tells Iranian protesters

US President Donald Trump has urged Iranian anti-government protesters to "keep protesting", saying "help is on its way."

Trump writes on social media platform Truth Social: "Iranian Patriots, KEEP PROTESTING - TAKE OVER YOUR INSTITUTIONS!!! Save the names of the killers and abusers. They will pay a big price.

"I have cancelled all meetings with Iranian Officials until the senseless killing of protesters STOPS. HELP IS ON ITS WAY".

Trump has recently floated the possibility of intervention in the country - his national security team is expected to meet today to discuss the options.

Thousands of people are feared dead after a crackdown on weeks of anti-government protests in Iran. Iranians describe terrible levels of death and destruction in their first calls to family abroad in days.
