Amidst the ongoing protests in Iran, the country’s exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi has issued a new emotional message to the Iranian people. Reza Pahlavi released a video message on Sunday (January 11, 2026). He appealed to the people not to step back from the movement and remain on the streets. He said that the voice of the Iranian people is no longer limited to the country only, but is resonating all over the world.
Reza Pahlavi, son of Iran’s last Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, said in his message that the current movement has weakened the repressive system of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. According to him, dissatisfaction is also increasing within the security forces and many soldiers are refusing to obey orders to take action against the protesters. Pahlavi said that now Khamenei is left with only a limited number of violent elements who consider the Iranian people as their enemy. He warned that those who commit atrocities on civilians will have to face consequences.
Know that you are not alone. This month, all over the world, your voice shouts with pride that the pictures are surely counted and widely seen through the television screen. The world today stands beside you on the sidelines of the national revolution and praises your courage. Especially President Trump, as the leader of the world… pic.twitter.com/D3JjErJ7QM

Special appeal for protesters
Reza Pahlavi advised people to remain united on the main roads and not to move away from the crowd into narrow streets or side streets, as this could increase the risk of life. He said that the strength of the movement lies in unity and discipline. In his message, Reza Pahlavi openly praised US President Donald Trump. He said that Trump has recognized the courage of the Iranian people and has expressed support in the fight for freedom. Pahlavi claimed that the world community, especially America, is keeping a close eye on the developments happening in Iran.
Internet shut down, death toll increases
Meanwhile, internet blackout continues in Iran, due to which information about the real situation inside the country is reaching outside in limited form. According to international news agency AP, at least 116 people have died so far during the protests and violence.
Government’s strict warning
The Iranian government has taken a tougher stance against the protests. Iran’s Attorney General Mohammad Movahedi Azad has warned that those involved in the demonstration will be considered enemies of God, under which there is a provision of even death penalty. After this statement, human rights organizations at the international level have expressed deep concern.
Economic crisis became the root of protest
The main reason for the protests in Iran is considered to be the serious economic crisis. In December 2025, the inflation rate had reached 42.5 percent. The situation worsened after the American attacks in June, due to which the everyday life of common people has been badly affected. This dissatisfaction has now taken the form of a big mass movement.
