The US is not ruling out a military intervention in Iran as hundreds have been killed during anti-government protests.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt declared that US President Donald Trump isn’t afraid to take military action “if and when he deems necessary”.

“One thing President Trump is very good at is always keeping all of his options on the table, and airstrikes would be one of the many, many options that are on the table,” she said.

“Diplomacy is always the first option for the President.

“However, … the President has shown he’s unafraid to use military options if and when he deems necessary, and nobody knows that better than Iran.”

Tehran has confirmed it is keeping communications open with the United States.

This comes as thousands of people have staged a protest in support of the country’s leadership as demonstrators can be heard shouting “death to America” in footage broadcast by state media.
