On Sunday, Iranian officials revealed a provocative mural in central Tehran, directly cautioning the United States against military strikes as tensions rise with US warships nearing the region.

The mural graphically depicts a damaged aircraft carrier, symbolizing escalating dangers amid recent protests in Iran, which met with a brutal government response. President Trump's warnings add fuel to the fire, indicating possible military action.

Conflicting reports emerge on the unrest's death toll, with activists citing over 5,800 fatalities, overshadowing official counts. This disparity highlights ongoing unrest reminiscent of Iran's 1979 Revolution, as both nations navigate a precarious standoff.
