Iran tightens internal security amid lingering war tensions

Iranian authorities have intensified internal security controls, including arrests, executions, and closures of public spaces, as diplomatic efforts to end the US-Israel war remain uncertain. Rights groups and citizens express concern over the crackdown, which follows nationwide protests in January that the government labels a US-Israeli orchestrated coup. At least 56 people have been executed on national security charges since March, with more facing similar risks.
