Iran's leader talks about many deaths in protests

Iran's top leader said for the first time that many people died in the protests. He said some people died in a very bad way. He blamed the United States for the deaths. The protests started because people were not happy with the economy. Now, many people want the leader to leave.

The government in Iran called the protests "riots." The police and army used force against the people. Many videos show police shooting at people. The internet in Iran is almost not working, so it is hard to know what is happening now. Some people say things are calm, but it is not clear.

The leader of Iran said the United States is the problem. He said the US wants to control Iran. The US president said he may use the army if Iran attacks American bases. The US also moved some soldiers away from a base in Qatar to be safe. The situation is still not clear.
