Hunger: Hunger riots - mass robbery of grocery stores began in Iran
  • In Iran, a panicked population is looting stores after food prices soared up to 300%, depending on the commodity. Iranian protesters took to the streets, smashing shops and food warehouses. In an attempt to deal with the unrest, the government shut down the internet in some regions.

    The Iranian authorities tried to keep prices down with subsidies, but government money was not enough for a long time - as soon as the subsidies were canceled, prices soared, putting hundreds of thousands of people at risk of starvation.

    The citizens of the country demand the restoration of the old prices for products and the elimination of unemployment.
