The Guardian has constructed a timeline for the terrible events of one night of protests in Rasht, based on first-hand accounts, video and photographsOn Thursday 8 January, Iran went dark. In the midst of massive national protests, the government shut down the internet, phone calls, and almost all communication out of the country. That evening a violent crackdown began. In some cities, government forces opened fire on crowds, killing thousands – , possibly tens of thousands – in two days of bloodshed. The internet blackout has meant that a clearer picture of what happened – drawn from witness reports, videos, photographs and testimony from hospitals – has taken time to assemble.When the violence began, there were demonstrations taking place in more than 200 cities, according to human rights groups. This is the story of what unfolded in one of them.

It’s past time for governments to help stop the ongoing racist violence directed at our communitiesGet our , or It’s hard to describe the anger and hurt First Nations people have felt since a man threw a bomb into a crowd of men, women and children on 26 January in Boorloo Perth. In the crowd were old folks, babies in arms, toddlers in prams, gathering peacefully as our families do every year on our National Day of Mourning.The Western Australian police say he threw a fragment bomb containing screws and ball-bearings, the kind designed to send shrapnel flying and cause maximum damage.

A crypto startup founded by Trump’s family signed a huge deal with the UAE president’s brother. Where’s the political fallout?Days before Donald Trump returned to office in January 2025, an investment firm controlled by a senior member of the United Arab Emirates royal family secretly to pay $500m to buy almost half of a cryptocurrency startup founded by the Trump family.

Fascism feeds on the arbitrary killings that have long plagued the US. Ending the horror starts with abolishing ICEIn a recent episode, when asked about , one of the white hosts : “Well, the first word that comes to mind is unprecedented. You’ve got federal officers roaming the streets just pulling people out of their cars based on how they look. This just doesn’t happen in America.” The joke is, of course, that “this” has been happening forever, but to Black people in America. Now that it is happening to others, and particularly now that white protesters are being killed in the streets, it is suddenly a .In his 1955 work Discourse on Colonialism, Aimé Césaire, the French poet and politician, argues that fascism was the result of bringing to bear on domestic populations the tactics European countries used on their colonial subjects in Africa. This is what has been called in the literature the “imperial boomerang thesis”. As many have been pointing out on social media and elsewhere, if we think of the US Black American population as , then you can see what is happening on the streets of Minneapolis as a manifestation of the imperial boomerang thesis.

Their ‘pro family’ rhetoric is a cynical and hollow shamOf the 3,800 children and infants taken into immigration custody between January and October of 2025, a majority – 2,600 – were detained by ICE officers. That means that the children, as young as one or two years old, were not arrested at the border or legal ports of entry, where asylum seekers frequently present themselves to border officers, but from inside the country.That means that those children were not new arrivals seeking help; they were kids going about their daily lives in the US, often with legal status. They were children like , aged five, who was snatched from his driveway after school by immigration agents while wearing a blue bunny hat to keep him warm in the Minnesota cold. They are children like one student, a 17-year-old from Liam’s school district in Minnesota, who was taken from , or the other child, a 10-year-old girl in the fourth grade, who was taken alongside ; or the two other boys, brothers in the second and fifth grades, who were delivered by school officials to an ICE detention center after their mother was arrested and taken there. She had to ask them to bring her boys to her in the prison; there was no one else to take care of them.
