All 31 provinces in Iran joined the truckers' strike which passed it's sixth day VIDEO

-

For the sixth day, truck drivers from hundreds of cities in Iran have refused to work or load their trucks as loading fees and expenses went up.



The truck strike in iran started in parts of Shiraz and Isfahan last Tuesday and drivers announced they will not go back to work until they receive higher transportation fares, higher driver’s insurance, and payable prices for spare parts.
Officials in certain cities have tried to persuade the drivers to stop their strike and made promises to them that there is going to be a 17 percent rise in their fares. But the drivers are not taking it seriously and say the government has always lied to them. The Transportation Organization called on all drivers to go back to their jobs as there will be a 20 percent rise in load fares but the drivers said they will remain striking till fares go up to 50 percent.

Over a thousand fuel tank drivers also went on strike

By the fourth day and onward, 1,700 fuel tank drivers from Isfahan Province stopped working as well as taxi drivers belonging to the Snap Internet Company. Videos sent from Tehran [VIDEO]showed 280 passenger buses in a convoy that were travelling empty.
Repressive Forces took aggressive attempts to try and make drivers in Islamabad Gharb and Hamedan pull back from their union and attacked strikers with electric shockers and tear gas that wounded some of them.
In the run-up to the strike, gas stations in numerous cities [VIDEO]such as Tehran, Shiraz, and Kazerun went short on petrol and some stations had to close. The gasoline stations are still experiencing long queues of cars parked outside until they can start pumping again.

Ongoing protests in Iran

State-run media desperately tries to show the situation as calm and under control, mentioning only four provinces being on strike. Now the facts of this tough uprising are becoming clear to the world as Al-Arabia TV and Sky News Arabia have broadcast the scenes on satellite.
Activists across Iran are reporting a whopping number of 233 protests across the country from May 17th to the 23rd. This leads to an average of 33 protest rallies each day. These protests continue the massive December uprising last year in December. People from throughout society poured into the streets, calling for the ruling mullahs’ overthrow.
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the president-elect of the Iranian Resistance, saluted the striking truckers and heavyweight vehicle drivers and called on all Iranians to support the striking drivers.
This is while the Iranian regime is on the verge of US sanctions and the situation will likely deteriorate further. The Iranian people will not tolerate the current situation and the protests will continue till the overthrow of the Iranian dictatorship.

  Written by Shamsi Saadati Paris, France  – On Saturday, May 17, 2025, an influential international conference convened in Paris, uniting parliamentarians and prominent political figures from a wide array of countries including the United Kingdom, Canada, Ireland, Malta, Switzerland, Romania, Portugal, and the Netherlands. The central theme of the gathering was the urgent need for a new, decisive international policy towards Iran, with a strong emphasis on supporting democratic change and recognizing the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) as a viable alternative to the current regime. The event served as a significant platform for global lawmakers to voice their concerns over the deteriorating human rights situation in Iran, the regime’s escalating domestic repression, its destabilizing regional activities, and its persistent pursuit of a nuclear program. A recurring call throughout the conference was for Western governments to adopt a firmer stance, including the ...

When War Becomes an Excuse: How Economic Pressure Is Being Shifted Onto Ordinary People

-

  By Reza Hoseani Iran’s economic crisis is no longer just a headline — it has become part of everyday life. Skyrocketing prices, the continuous collapse of the national currency, and shrinking household purchasing power are now affecting nearly every segment of society. But an important question remains: Are these hardships truly the direct result of war and external pressure, or are they rooted in domestic economic policies and political decisions? While state media repeatedly blame regional tensions and foreign conflicts for inflation and market instability, many economists argue that the current crisis is driven far more by internal policymaking than by war itself.   War as a Cover for Internal Economic Failure For years, whenever Iran’s economy entered a deeper phase of crisis, official narratives pointed to external enemies and international tensions. However, economic experts say the immediate impact of war rarely causes inflation on this scale in such a sho...

Intensifying U.S. Economic Pressure: Washington’s New Move Against the Mullahs’ Regime and Its Consequences

-

  By Reza Hoseani Is Washington’s economic fury more effective than military warfare? An examination of the United States’ new sanctions targeting the IRGC’s financial lifelines and their impact on Iran’s explosive social environment. Amid the regime’s paralyzing deadlock between war and restraint, Washington has made its choice unmistakably clear: an all-out economic war instead of a large-scale military war. This choice is not the product of moderation. Rather, it reflects an understanding that economic pressure may be more lethal to the regime, less costly for the West, and more socially acceptable to the Iranian people than military intervention. 1. From “Maximum Pressure” to “Economic Fury”: The IRGC’s Lifelines in the Crosshairs In recent months, the U.S. Department of the Treasury has escalated economic pressure through two new initiatives. First came what has been described as Operation Economic Fury, announced by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. He stated explicitly ...
