Administration issues warning to US citizens: \u2018Leave Iran now\u2019 \u2013 key US politics stories from 13 January at a glance
Donald Trump has told Iranians to keep protesting and said help was on the way, in the clearest sign yet that the US president may be preparing for military action against Tehran.
\u201cIranian Patriots, keep protesting \u2013 take over your institutions!!! \u2026 help is on its way,\u201d Trump said in a post on Truth Social on Tuesday. He added that he had cancelled all meetings with Iranian officials until the \u201csenseless killing\u201d of protesters stopped.
His call to keep protesting comes a day after demonstrations had apparently subsided owing to the severity of the crackdown. Trump is still conferring with officials about the action he could take. But his words imply he will not be content with further economic pressure.

Trump said that there would be \u201cvery strong action\u201d if the regime hangs protesters. He did not elaborate on what that would mean.
Trump\u2019s new declaration of support may bolster the demonstrations, but it remains unclear if a show of force by the US can compel the Iranian regime to back down.
