Photo from the internet. Mass protests in Iran In Iran, mass protests have been ongoing for several days, triggered by a sharp deterioration in the economic situation. The protests have spread not only to the capital Tehran but also to major cities such as Isfahan and Shiraz.
The main reasons for people taking to the streets include the devaluation of the national currency, rising prices for food and essential goods, as well as high inflation. Participants in the demonstrations are raising socio-economic demands, although political slogans are also being heard in some cities.
According to foreign media reports, in some regions, protests have escalated into clashes with law enforcement agencies. There are mentions of casualties and injuries, and dozens of people have been detained. Authorities have intensified security measures, and there are observed restrictions on the use of the internet and social media. Iranian officials claim that they are controlling the situation and attribute the unrest to "external interference."
