Iran's Economic Woes Deepen Amid Unrest and Conflict

Iran is struggling with severe economic troubles intensified by ongoing U.S. and Israeli airstrikes and a harsh crackdown on protesters in January. Despite efforts to maintain normalcy, the nation remains gripped by fear and uncertainty.

Everyday life appears unchanged with parks bustling and businesses open, but beneath the surface, anxiety mounts as people worry about potential government repression after a possible peace deal with the U.S.

Economists warn that Iran's economic woes are set to worsen, possibly leading to mass layoffs and increased public discontent with the entrenched theocracy, following recent violent confrontations.
