Iranian militants, US and dangers
Escalation of the situation around Iran
Iran's Foreign Minister, speaking on Fox News, said that militants deliberately increased the number of victims by killing civilians and police officers. According to the Iranian official, these groups operated as terrorist cells and intentionally created an image of mass executions. In a statement accompanying America's announcement, he said he had been informed that "killings in the Islamic Republic have stopped, there are no executions." President Trump took his usual stance—closely monitoring the developments. In response to U.S. requests, a United Nations Security Council meeting on the situation in Iran will be held on January 15 at 11:00 PM Minsk time. This announcement came from the Somali embassy, which currently holds the presidency of the Council.

Iran's foreign minister accuses militants of deliberately increasing casualties and reports possible U.S. involvement. Meanwhile, the U.S. is closely monitoring the situation and plans to discuss next steps at the UN.
