Back to EpisodesPDB Afternoon Bulletin | February 25th, 2026: Iranian Students Clash With Regime Militias & Moscow Targets Telegram
Description
In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin:
-
Protests erupt across Iran for the fifth straight day as university campuses turn into flashpoints between anti-regime students and pro-government militias. Unlike January’s market-driven unrest, this new wave appears ideological — directly challenging the legitimacy of the regime.
-
The Kremlin may be preparing its biggest digital crackdown yet. Russian security services are floating terrorism allegations against the founder of Telegram, raising the prospect that Moscow could shut down one of the last independent information platforms inside the country.
