"Israelis took part in a rally in the city of Holon, south of Tel Aviv, on Wednesday in solidarity with Iranian protesters amid rising tensions between Iran on one side and Israel and the United States on the other. Footage shows demonstrators gathering in a public square, waving Israeli and pre-revolutionary Iranian flags and holding photos of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the son of Iran’s last Shah. One of the rally’s organisers, Emily Shidard, said she attended to show “the Israeli people’s support for the Iranian people”. “The people of Israel are with you. We are even calling on our own government to take whatever action is possible to support the people of Iran,” Shidard added. A few days earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his country was “closely monitoring what is happening in Iran”, adding that his government “supports the protesters’ struggle for freedom and strongly condemns the mass killings of innocent civilians.” Tensions between Iran and both the United States and Israel have risen in recent days, with mutual accusations exchanged amid talk of a possible imminent US strike. Iran has seen protests since late December, initially erupting in Tehran before spreading to other cities, driven by worsening economic conditions and the sharp fall of the Iranian rial against the US dollar. Rioting and vandalism have targeted public property in several cities. Iran’s president accused what he described as ‘the enemy’ of training groups inside and outside the country and bringing terrorists in from abroad. Authorities say they are working to meet what they describe as the protesters’ 'legitimate' demands within available means, while insisting that external forces are seeking to exploit Iran’s economic difficulties to ‘stir unrest’. On 2 January, US President Donald Trump said in a post on the Truth Social platform that the United States "would intervene to aid Iranian protesters if Iran opens fire on them.""
