Iran’s economy has plunged deeper into crisis, with the regime’s own Statistics Centre reporting point-to-point inflation hitting 77.2 per cent.
The 12-month rate climbed to 53.9 per cent, and prices for basic necessities surged past 80 per cent.
Cooking oil is up 266 per cent year on year, red meat 175, food 129.8, vehicles 125, and water, electricity and fuel 95.
Iranian households are being crushed by the regime’s economic mismanagement and the cost of its war with Israel and the United States.
Officials are running out of monetary tricks to mask the collapse.
