From online class to Revolution Square: A Tehran teacher’s routine amid war

Mehran, a 47-year-old teacher in Tehran, conducts his classes online from a corner of his apartment due to the Ramadan War between the US, Israel, and Iran. Internet access is frustratingly weak; his 14-year-old daughter uses an old tablet, while his 8-year-old son hovers near the window with his mother’s smartphone for a signal. His wife Azadeh works remotely for a private company. The war has led to bombed schools and universities, hyperinflation, pharmacies with bare shelves, and crowded fare-free public buses.
