Khamenei Accuses Trump of Stoking Deadly Unrest in Iran

A demonstrator holds the burning head of an effigy depicting US President Donald Trump during a protest against the US. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has intensified his criticism of the United States, directly accusing President Donald Trump of encouraging the wave of protests that has shaken the country. The demonstrations, which began as economic grievances, quickly expanded into broader political unrest and were met with a forceful response from Iranian security forces. Khamenei framed the turmoil as part of a foreign-backed effort to destabilize the Islamic Republic, arguing that Washington — and Trump personally — sought to inflame tensions and undermine Iran’s stability.

Your daily horoscope: January 15, 2026

 

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

As Venus moves into the money area of your chart on your birthday you won’t lack for opportunities to make a dollar or two. It’s not wrong to be rich, so don’t let your Capricorn sense of fairness hold you back. Money is just a means to an end.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

Make the most of the sun’s final hurrah in the area of your chart that governs your professional reputation to give your career goals a push. If you can impress employers and important people now they will help you massively later on.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

Put yourself about a bit this weekend and don’t be afraid to set yourself targets that are way beyond anything you have attempted before. Your creative potential is unlimited but to make the most of it your ambition must be unlimited as well.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

There are some very big changes on the cosmic horizon, the sort of changes you will enjoy to the max. Before then, however, you need to deal with a long-running financial problem that could hold you back if you continue to ignore it.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

Something you have desired for a very long time will be offered to you over the next 48 hours and you must seize it immediately. Don’t let your suspicious nature hold you back from making the most of the situation – it’s not a trick.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

Focus on what is of genuine importance this weekend and ignore what is clearly irrelevant. That applies to all areas but especially to your work environment, where some of your colleagues don’t seem as serious about their responsibilities as you are.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

A new moon in the most dynamic and creative area of your chart is encouraging you, begging you even, to stop wasting time and get important things done. You may still be able to do them later on but it will be more of an uphill struggle.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

Try not to take what happens on the home front too seriously this weekend because in a matter of days there will be more important things going on. If certain individuals want to wallow in self-made misery just let them get on with it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

Get out and about over the next two or three days and have as much fun as is humanly possible. Anyone who thinks Scorpio is too serious a sign to let their hair down will be forced to revise their opinion about you pretty quickly.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

If you take other people’s needs and desires into consideration this weekend they will return the favor later on when it is you who needs assistance. Don’t give them money if they ask for it but do give them lots and lots of love.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

With a new moon in your sign there is no limit to how far you can travel or how much you can achieve. Set your sights high, then go even higher. You will surprise others by how ambitious you can be, and you may surprise yourself as well!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

The times they are a-changin’ and they are changing very much in your favor. With Venus moving into your sign this weekend and the sun joining it on Monday you must act as if you don’t have a care in the world, even though you have plenty.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

If you’ve got a stack of work to get through this weekend don’t be afraid to ask partners, loved ones and colleagues for assistance. You have helped them out many times in the past and they will be only too happy to return the favour.
