🗣Your account: Living conditions under the shadow of military tensions — Sunday, 11 Mordad

📍 Tehran Province 🔹It’s like there’s going to be war again, and they say we should prepare everything so that we have food at home, but we don’t have anything at home and we don’t have the money to buy. Damn the Islamic Republic for taking life away from us.

🔹I’m a worker at the company “Kayson.” Our wages have fallen behind so much that we’ve lost count. It’s been more than six months that our salaries have been delayed.

🔹Damn both Trump and the Islamic Republic. We’re going insane from the price increases. We don’t have life, we don’t know what to do. We are living in misery. I myself am on insulin and my child is also disabled—believe me, for two years I haven’t been able to buy a quarter kilo of meat.

🔹My son’s only interest is football. He was on a club team, and his football was really good. Because the football tuition has gone up to 18 million tomans, I couldn’t enroll him. Now the 12-year-old is sitting at home from morning until night playing games on his phone. Damn this government and governance.

📍 Khuzestan Province 🔹Since morning I paid a lot of money for internet, but I couldn’t even use it for two minutes without interruptions. Shame on you, O Islamic Republic—thief.

🔹Where are we headed? We’re scrambling in poverty in a way that we even sell our gold to keep living, and we no longer have the strength to continue.

📍 Isfahan Province 🔹Last year, the major company Isfahan Mobarakeh Steel (Zobahan) stopped complementary insurance due to unpaid money from the retirement fund. Through negotiation it was restored for one month until the end of Khordad, and then it was cut off again. People are afraid to go to a doctor’s office or hospital for treatment.

📍 Fars Province 🔹From Shiraz: please, landlords, have mercy on tenants. If you don’t want to add 25 percent, at least add 40 or 50 percent—not 100 percent. These prices are impossible for anyone.

📍 Other Provinces 🔹On Sunday, 11 Mordad, I went to the supermarket: 5 eggs, a ton of fish, and a soda totaled 600 thousand tomans. How long will this price increase keep going?

🔹I’m a 48-year-old patient with heart disease, diabetes, and pancreatic failure. For three months, the “Reipata” injections have not been imported into the country and my treatment has been stopped. The delay in my previous injection caused severe pancreatitis; I was hospitalized in the ICU for three weeks, and I came close to death.

🔹I’m fed up with this lousy life. If you don’t have insurance, buying two Irovjets (iron medicines) costs 7 million and 600 thousand tomans. That means we can’t even treat iron deficiency in this country.
