Iran's judiciary announced on January 8 jail terms of up to 10 years for people who called for strikes following months of anti-government protests. It's the first time the judiciary has announced prison sentences for such incitement during the nationwide protests, triggered by the September death in custody of Mahsa Amini. The judiciary's Mizan Online news website said the four defendants received between one and 10 years in prison. They were not identified and may still appeal the verdicts.
