Here is an edited transcript of the conversation. How is daily life in Tehran? People left in waves, especially those who were next to targets. Advertisement The financial situation is very bad. My job has been halted and I am spending out of my savings. Going away has costs too, so this may be one of the reasons why people are leaving Tehran less now, along with Trump saying civilians would be safe. You can still do your shopping though. For petrol, they went from 30 litres maximum to 20. I didn’t take any petrol because I have enough. But I heard from a friend that at one petrol station, they capped it at five litres. Advertisement Thankfully we haven’t had to go to a hospital yet but apparently they work fine.
