Meanwhile in Iran major protests continue, but are now being shrouded by an internet blackout (likely caused by the regime trying to control/constrain co-ordination & publicity).

The protests are focussed on the continuing problems with the Iranian economy (caused by both external sanctions & internal market organisation failures), but the Q. is what concessions the regime can offer & how this might (or might not) shift the internal politics of Iran?
