Six months into the war, Iran is wounded but survives
Six months into the war, Iranians are facing severe economic hardship including rising inflation, increased food prices, currency collapse, and cuts to essential spending. While daily life continues and supermarkets remain stocked, many fear renewed conflict and are uncertain about the future. Economic concerns, coupled with lingering anger over corruption and repression, are prevalent.
The economic strain in Iran is a critical factor influencing public sentiment and potentially domestic stability, with officials concerned that further economic pressure could reignite street protests.
