Iran's Economic Crisis Looms as Trigger for Future Protests

Iran's economic crisis has been building for months, but so far it hasn't sparked widespread protests. Israeli officials say this will change eventually.

The country is facing sharp inflation and steep price increases, as well as disruptions to oil exports and commodity trade.

Tehran has managed to contain public discontent with decades of experience managing international sanctions and developing mechanisms to limit their immediate impact.

However, Israeli officials believe these measures may only preserve stability in the short term, and cannot offer a sustainable solution as economic conditions continue to worsen.
