Iran's worsening economic crisis has entered a new phase in which the issue is no longer merely inflation or declining living standards, but the erosion of the regime's political legitimacy. Record inflation, the collapse of purchasing power, and expanding nationwide protests indicate that growing segments of Iranian society have moved beyond demands for reform toward fundamental political change.

Tehran teemed with Khamenei mourners, but divisions – and demands for change – remain
As the multipurpose, multinational funeral of Iran's former supreme leader Ali Khamenei moved to the Jamkaran mosque in the holy city of Qom, and then to Najaf in Iraq, Iran's leadership was weighing the mandate it had been given by the millions who have taken to the streets of Tehran over the past three days. Some hailed the moment as a referendum from the streets showing support for the clerical establishment, and called for the strategy of confrontation with the west to be intensified. Others said it was more about a wider national pride that was conditional on demands for change and an end to the war being met.
