An explosive interview with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has exposed alleged internal security failures and extensive US and Israeli intelligence infiltration within Iran's regime, raising fresh questions about Tehran's vulnerabilities. In part two of today’s episode of Iran: The Latest, Iranian journalist Tara Kangarlou joins Venetia Rainey to analyse Araghchi’s revelations and the growing humanitarian impact of the US-Iran conflict. They discuss how Donald Trump’s strikes on Iran are damaging critical civilian infrastructure, why fears are growing over a new wave of political executions, how Iran’s economy is spiralling deeper into crisis, and what these developments mean for ordinary Iranians.
