Across Iran, from the capital Tehran to cities in every corner of the country, the PMOI’s internal network of Resistance Units launched a multi-day campaign, demonstrating a level of organization and reach that has sent shockwaves through the regime’s security apparatus.

The Painful Story of School Dropout Caused by Poverty in Iran
The alarming situation of students dropping out of school in Iran stems from structural factors such as severe poverty, economic inequality, and a lack of funding for educational infrastructure. This growing phenomenon is threatening the future of millions of children and adolescents and requires a serious review of the country’s educational and economic policies. Alireza Kazemi, the education minister of Iran’s regime, recently announced that there are nearly 950,000 children who have dropped out of school. He stated that economic poverty, illnesses, migration, and poor educational conditions are among the contributing factors.
Kolbar Workers: Iran’s Borderline of Poverty, Death, and Repression
For tens of thousands in Iran’s western borderlands, “kolbari” is not a job but a desperate act of survival—born of systemic poverty, neglect, and repression. In western Iran’s mountainous borderlands, kolbari—the practice of carrying heavy goods across the border on foot—has become the last means of survival for tens of thousands. Once an informal trade tradition, it now stands as one of the starkest symbols of poverty, inequality, and state neglect under Iran’s regime. Although the regime provides no official statistics, human rights organizations estimate that over 70,000 people in Kurdistan, Kermanshah, and West Azerbaijan provinces depend on kolbari to survive. Many are young men—some university graduates—who face total unemployment in regions long abandoned by Tehran’s economic policies.
