Supreme Leader Snoke Khamenei dismisses the protest and claims that the unrest has been created by Iran's enemies.

And while at first glance this sounds like a Trump-like thing to do, there might be something to it:

"Based on our analyses, around 27% of the new hashtags against Iran are generated by the Saudi government," Shamkhani said, according to state-run Press TV.

Needless to say, claims from the government must be taken with a grain of salt, and Iran's Press TV is down there with Russia Today and Breitpravda in terms of credibility. Nevertheless, the claim is at the very least plausible.
