Iranian Leader Khamenei Accuses US and Arab States of Fuelling Unrest in Iraq and Lebanon - Reports

Previously, mass protests in Iraq led to dramatic clashes, claiming the lives of around 250 people, while rallies in Lebanon's capital of Beirut have forced Prime Minister Saad Hariri to announce his resignation.
 

Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic Ali Khamenei urged the Iraqi and Lebanese peoples to retain stability in their countries amid the mass unrest, claiming that the protests were inspired by Washington and Arab states.

The violent protests in Iraq that erupted in recent months have led to social networks and messengers being banned, as well as the introduction of a curfew in several cities. The protesters oppose the deteriorating public services and corruption, urging the government to resign.
