Iran protests: Will they lead to change?

Iran is witnessing its largest anti-government protest movement in years.

Thousands have taken to the streets following the death of a young woman, Mahsa Amini, in police custody nearly a month ago.

The protests are seen as a major threat to the regime, which has responded with force.

So could the protests really bring regime change? Newshour have been speaking to Rana Rahimpour, journalist and anchor for BBC Persian TV.
