US-Israel war with Iran: What's life like in Iran? | The Global Story

Five days on since the first US–Israeli strikes on Iran and the death of supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei, the country is once again in a communications blackout. With limited access to reliable information, it’s difficult to know how ordinary Iranians are coping. Parham Ghobadi, senior reporter and presenter at BBC Persian, has been speaking to people inside Iran, including his own parents, to gauge their fears, their expectations, and how they are navigating a moment that could reshape their country’s future. New episodes of The Global Story are released daily. If you’re in the UK, listen on BBC Sounds. If you live outside the UK, listen on BBC.com or wherever you get your podcasts.
