Protesters in Tehran's Grand Bazaar are demonstrating against Iran's deteriorating economy, with at least 36 reported deaths since protests began in December. The Iranian rial has fallen to a record low against the dollar due to hyperinflation, leading to increased prices for essential goods. President Masoud Pezeshkian acknowledged the government's inability to manage the crisis alone. The situation has escalated with protests spreading across the country, prompting concerns of potential US intervention following warnings from President Trump.
