Iran’s Parliament met on Sunday (January 11, 2026) to discuss the ongoing protests shaking the nation, with lawmakers at one point rushing to the front of the assembly to chant: “Death to America!”
The show in the Parliament, controlled by hard-liners, comes as Iran’s theocracy struggles to contain the demonstrations, now two weeks old.
Lawmakers later chanted other slogans in support of the government.
Iran warned President Donald Trump on Sunday (January 11, 2026) that any U.S. attack would lead to Tehran striking back against Israel and regional U.S. military bases as “legitimate targets”, Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf told parliament.
