Demonstrations were held in several major European cities in solidarity with ongoing protests in Iran, as anger mounts over worsening economic conditions and soaring food prices amid a nationwide communications blackout.
In The Hague, protesters gathered at the Malieveld to denounce Iran’s theocratic leadership. Participants expressed concern over reports that security forces have used lethal force against demonstrators since the unrest began in late December. Many said they were unable to contact family members and friends in Iran due to severe communication restrictions.
The rallies were attended largely by Iranians living abroad and people of Iranian descent, who said they felt a responsibility to support protesters back home. Demonstrators stressed that people from all ages and social backgrounds in Iran continue to take to the streets demanding freedom and basic rights.
Similar demonstrations took place in Berlin, where protesters described the unrest as one of the most serious challenges to Iran’s authorities since the 1979 Islamic Revolution. Participants said public frustration has reached breaking point after years of economic hardship and political repression.
U.S. President Donald Trump was among the first world leaders to comment on the protests, warning Tehran against the use of lethal force and suggesting Washington could respond militarily if the crackdown continued. In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump said the United States was ready to assist Iran, without providing further details.
Protesters in Berlin said they hoped international pressure from Europe and the United States would help Iranians in their struggle against the ruling establishment, arguing that sustained global attention could influence the outcome of the crisis.
