US - Iran Tensions Shake Iran’s Economy

Iran is facing severe pressure due to growing fears of a possible US attack and the impact of economic sanctions. Amid these developments, the Iranian currency has fallen sharply once again. The rial has dropped to a historic low against the US dollar, with one dollar now valued at nearly 1.5 million rials. In comparison, during the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and the US, the exchange rate stood at around 32,000 rials per dollar, highlighting the scale of the decline.

Meanwhile, tensions between the US and Iran continue to escalate. Reports suggest that the US aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln has reached the Middle East, along with plans to deploy fighter jets and military cargo aircraft. Iran has issued strong warnings, stating it will respond firmly if attacked. Billboards in Tehran caution the US against any military action. With uncertainty looming, several Middle Eastern countries remain on high alert over the evolving situation.
