☆ Despite world-beating growth, India's lack of jobs threatens its young
  + stars: | 2023-05-30 | by ( Ira Dugal | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +6 min
India's urban unemployment soared during the COVID-19 pandemic, reaching a high of 20.9% in the April-June 2020 quarter, while wages fell. Falling employment and earnings undermine India’s chances to fuel the economic growth needed to create jobs for its young and growing population. This means that of the estimated urban workforce of about 150 million, only 73 million have full-time jobs. But only 24 million will likely be created, leaving behind "46 million missing jobs." "From that lens, a growth rate of 6.5% will solve a third of India’s jobs problem," Bhandari wrote.
☆ Iran turns to public executions in bid to crush anti-government protests

LONDON — Iran’s government has spent months violently cracking down on protests gripping the country. The first known executions of people arrested over the monthslong protests prompted an outcry from Western governments and human rights activists, but they came as little surprise to those involved in the demonstrations or carefully watching them from afar. Human rights groups and Western governments say Iran’s judicial system is based on sham trials behind closed doors. A week earlier, Iran executed another man, Mohsen Shekari, for allegedly blocking a road in Tehran and stabbing a pro-government militia member who required stitches. Around a dozen others have been sentenced to death, according to human rights groups.
☆ Facing a wave of public anger, Iran’s regime could be in a fight for long-term survival, experts say

From anti-government graffiti to students heckling government officials, to women walking in the street without headscarves to workers putting down their tools, Iran’s regime looks increasingly bewildered by events. “It’s like a war, the Islamic Republic versus the Iranian people,” said the woman from Tehran. She and other Iranians say the helmeted police flooding the streets resemble an occupying force, unsure of their position and unable to trust the local population. The Norway-based group Iran Human Rights and the U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency said Friday more than 250 protesters have been killed in the six weeks since protests began. “We all know that this time we will overthrow the regime,” said the woman in Tehran.

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran’s army on Friday hinted that it was prepared to deepen its crackdown on protests triggered by the death of a young woman who had been detained by the morality police. In one video uploaded on Twitter, a group of demonstrators in the city of Pakdasht shout, "Death to the dictator." While in New York, Raisi was scheduled to be interviewed by CNN journalist Christiane Amanpour. Anna Moneymaker / Getty ImagesAmanpour, CNN’s chief international anchor, said she planned to ask Raisi about the protests that have swept across Iran. On Thursday, the Treasury Department imposed sanctions on Iran's morality police, accusing it of abusing Iranian women and holding the unit responsible for Amini's death.
