A month-long wave of civil unrest continues to destabilize Iran following initial demonstrations that ignited December 28 at Tehran's Grand Bazaar. The protests originated from public fury over the Iranian rial's dramatic collapse and deteriorating economic circumstances before rapidly expanding to multiple urban centers nationwide.
