News Wrap: Iran threatens protesters with death penalty

Season 2026 Episode 10 | 2m 34s

In our news wrap Saturday, human rights watchers say at least 72 people have been killed in Iran as protests near a second week, the U.S. military conducted several large-scale strikes against ISIS in Syria, Trump moved to tighten U.S. control over revenue from Venezuelan oil sales, and rescuers in the Philippines said there’s hope of finding more survivors in a massive garbage avalanche.
