People in Iran struggle with high prices

The war has completely wrecked Iran's economy. Inflation has shot up, making daily essentials unaffordable. For example, a litre of milk costs 6,50,000 Iranian Rials, a kilo of rice is 2.8 million Rials, and a dozen eggs cost 1.5 million Rials. The currency has collapsed so badly that the country even introduced a 10 million Rial note.
