Anti-government protests have erupted at several universities in Tehran, only weeks after a deadly crackdown by authorities reportedly left thousands dead. Verified footage shows demonstrations at six campuses, with clashes between pro-government and anti-government groups.

Videos capture protesters chanting in support of the monarchy and waving the pre-revolution lion and sun flag, while pro-government demonstrators are seen burning United States and Israel flags. The unrest highlights continuing tensions across the country following the earlier crackdown.

Separately, authorities are verifying footage from Mexico after violence broke out following the killing of a major cartel leader during an attempted arrest. Retaliation has reportedly spread across multiple states, with images showing burned businesses, roadblocks, and attacks on soldiers.

Investigations are also underway into an armed man shot by the Secret Service after breaching the secure perimeter of President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence, along with efforts to debunk claims that the president phoned a television network under a false name.
