The UK is sanctioning two dozen Iranian officials over what it called a 'violent repression of protests' sparked by Mahsa Amini's death

The nationwide protests, ignited by 22-year-old Mahsa Amini's death in morality police custody on 16 September after her arrest for"inappropriate attire", have turned into a legitimacy crisis for the four-decade-old Islamic Republic.

"This revolution changes many things," Mr Macron said."I don't think there will be new proposals which can be made right now to save the nuclear deal." "These sanctions target officials within the Iranian regime who are responsible for heinous human rights violations," Foreign Secretary James Cleverly said.Women and students have played a leading role calling for the downfall of Islamist rule under Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, in defiance of a tough crackdown by security forces.

The activist news agency HRANA said 341 protesters had been killed in the unrest, including 52 minors.
