Retired steelworkers in Mazandaran held a protest rally

Retired steelworkers in Mazandaran held a protest rally to voice their anger over delayed pensions, worsening poverty, and the unfulfilled promises of Islamic Republic officials.

Chanting slogans and carrying signs, the retirees demanded immediate payment of their overdue wages and called for urgent attention to their livelihoods. Many emphasized that despite years of hard labor, they now face economic hardship and neglect in old age.

This protest adds to a growing wave of demonstrations across Iran by pensioners and retirees who say they’ve been left behind by the country's economic policies and rampant mismanagement.
