Donald Trump says he is considering ‘strong options’ to intervene in Iran as rights groups say at least 500 protesters have been killed during anti-government demonstrations and thousands more detained.
In response, Iran’s foreign minister says the country ‘is not seeking war but is fully prepared for war.’
The uprising began a fortnight ago after shopkeepers in Tehran’s Grand Bazaar staged a strike over rocketing inflation and regime repression, according to rights groups.
