Modern Famine: A Man-Made Catastrophe in Iran. ---- Since the early days
of the Islamic Republic's rise to power in 1979, Iranian society has
lived under poverty, repression, the systematic plundering of public
resources, and the gradual destruction of people's livelihoods. ----
What we are witnessing today is not a sudden crisis. It is the result of
more than four decades of ideological rule, authoritarianism, and
economic devastation.
Since 2025, and especially after the massacres perpetrated by the
Islamic Republic in January and March 2026, and the escalation of the
war involving the Islamic Republic, the United States, and Israel, this
crisis has entered a new and deadly phase.
War, sanctions, economic siege, and the collapse of Iran's national
currency have pushed millions of people into food insecurity.
Today, the Iranian rial has lost much of its value, while one US dollar
is worth over 2,000,000 rials. The price of meat has increased by more
than 150%, rice by around 60%, and eggs and many other essential basic
goods have multiplied in price.
Food inflation has reached catastrophic levels. These are not mere
statistics; they are the reality of empty tables and children deprived
of nutrition and a future.
We declare that this famine is not a natural disaster. It is a political
famine, man-made.
The Islamic Republic, through its militarism and violent repression, and
the United States, through sanctions and an economic blockade that
directly harms civilians, are both responsible for this ongoing catastrophe.
The people of Iran must not be forced to pay for the conflicts of states
with hunger and death.
We call upon anarchists, independent trade unions, communes, mutual aid
networks, and all freedom-loving people worldwide to:
- Break the silence and expose the humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in
Iran.
- Build networks of solidarity and mutual aid to support the people.
- Speak out against the repression and massacres, the war, the
sanctions, and the collective punishment of civilians.
- Amplify the voices of Iranian society on the world stage.
Resistance is built through solidarity.
