A: Hey, did you hear about what’s happening in Iran? It sounds pretty serious.
B: No, what’s going on? Tell me!

A: There are big protests happening all over Iran! It started last month.
B: Wow, really? What’s it about?

A: Well, lots of people are saying the death toll is getting higher. Some reports say almost 2,000 people have died. It’s hard to know exactly.
B: That’s terrible! Are they saying why so many people have died?

A: The government calls them "martyrs," which is… interesting, I guess.
B: Uh-huh. So, is the internet working okay there?

A: Nope! The government cut off the internet because they’re worried about security. They say it's until things calm down.
B: Seriously? That’s a harsh move.

A: They're also blaming the US and Israel for causing the trouble. Can you believe that?
B: Politicians, right? What’s Trump saying about all this?

A: He’s being pretty vocal. He's telling Iranians to keep protesting.
B: Oh, boy. He's also saying people who hurt protesters will face consequences.

A: He even cancelled his meetings with Iranian officials.
B: That’s a pretty strong message. It’s a complicated situation, huh?
