Iran's working class, facing dim prospects, fuels unrest
In this Sunday, May 22, 2017, photo, a staffer works at the fulfillment center of the Bamilo online shopping site in Tehran, Iran. Anger and frustration over the economy has been the main fuel for the surprise eruption of protests that began on Dec. 28, 2017. President Hassan Rouhani, a relative moderate, had promised that the lifting of most international sanctions under Iran’s landmark 2015 nuclear deal with the West would revive the long-suffering economy. The end of sanctions did open up a new influx of cash from increased oil exports, but little of that has trickled down to the wider population. At the same time, Rouhani has enforced austerity policies that hit households hard. (AP Photo/Ebrahim Noroozi)
