Al Jazeera AR·IR · US·about 11 hours ago
Al Jazeera reports that inflation in Iran, intensified by ongoing war, is forcing the middle class in Tehran to downgrade to street vendors and second-hand markets. The report indicates a significant erosion of living standards, though specific inflation figures and the exact war context are not detailed. This signals growing economic strain and potential social instability, which could have broader regional implications.
