Unrest continues to grow in Iran, with street demonstrations raging across the country. Protesters are publicly calling for the end of the Islamic Republic. Reza Pahlavi, the son of the last shah of Iran, has sent words of encouragement to the protesters - saying Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is trembling in fear. But so far authorities have not backed down. The internet is still cut off, with rights groups alleging more and more deaths and reports of overwhelmed hospitals. #dwnewsshorts
