Chaos in Iran: Protests Against the Ayatollahs and Cracks in the Regime – Three Dead in Demonstrations

Iran is experiencing increasing political and social decay despite external pressures. Following the “12-day war,” the regime faces cracks in its image of control, exacerbated by the economic crisis. The fall of the rial and inflation are hitting significant social groups, leading to a resurgence of protests. While these protests do not directly challenge the regime, they question its ability to govern effectively. The government is trying to slow down the decay but has not yet found solutions. The recent three deaths in demonstrations highlight the volatile situation in Iran. The crisis is not sudden but the result of a gradual economic breakdown since 2025, with protests from workers and merchants over economic issues.
