Instead, the trend has been towards greater disparity.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to the report, the Iranian population has grown poorer over the past decade. The average per capita income has plummeted, dropping from 4.7 million tomans in 2011 to just 2.5 million tomans in 2022. This significant reduction in income levels reflects a worsening economic situation for the majority of the population.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/irannewsupdate.com\/news\/economy\/irans-economic-crisis-deepens-as-inequality-and-poverty-spread\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #4db2ec; text-decoration-line: underline;\">Read more<\/span><\/a><\/p>\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Iranian Regime Security Forces Attack Protesting Steel Industry Retirees<\/h3>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-324762 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iran-shush-retirees-protest-06102024-300x167.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"167\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iran-shush-retirees-protest-06102024-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iran-shush-retirees-protest-06102024-768x427.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iran-shush-retirees-protest-06102024-755x420.jpg 755w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iran-shush-retirees-protest-06102024-150x83.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iran-shush-retirees-protest-06102024-696x387.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/iran-shush-retirees-protest-06102024.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Reports indicate that Iranian regime security forces attacked a protest gathering of steel industry retirees in Tehran.\u00a0On Sunday, October 6, steel retirees held a protest in front of the presidential office near Pasteur Square.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Published videos show that the protest turned violent after the intervention of security forces, who not only beat the protesters but also arrested some of them.
