In Iran: 'We're still stuck in the same dead ends' — War crushes hopes of liberation from authoritarian rule
Summary
The article profiles Firouzeh, a nurse in Isfahan, Iran, who has kept opaque tape on her windows since the war began to prevent them from shattering during bombings. It reflects on how some Iranians initially saw the war as an opportunity to free themselves from their authoritarian regime, but the harsh reality of the conflict has crushed those hopes. The piece captures the lingering fear and disillusionment among ordinary Iranians living under both war and authoritarian rule.
