DUBAI, Sept 6 (Reuters) – Iran will raise the pric DUBAI, Sept 6 (Reuters) – Iran will raise the price of gasoline for users surpassing 110 litres per month starting on Tuesday, a government spokesperson said on Sunday, as it steps up efforts to tackle problems created by the war and crippling U.S. economic sanctions.

The price of the first and second quotas, which include 110 litres, will remain unchanged, but the price of the third quota will be raised to 100,000 Iranian rials per litre (around 4 U.S. cents based on the free-market rate), Fatemeh Mohajerani said in comments carried by state media.

The increase in Iran‘s gasoline price, which is one of the lowest in the world, was discussed by the government and postponed amid concerns it could trigger new protests. Iran experienced widespread protests in 2019 over the same issue.

The higher fuel price will only affect consumers who require more than 110 litres per month and is due to “current conditions”, Mohajerani said.

Other motorists can still buy up to 60 litres at 15,000 rials per litre and an additional 50 litres at 30,000 rials per litre, she added.

In December, Iran partially raised the price of its subsidized gasoline for most users, as the OPEC member sought to control rising fuel demand.

DUBAI, Sept 6 (Reuters) – Iran said it will step u DUBAI, Sept 6 (Reuters) – Iran said it will step up efforts to tackle problems created by the U.S. sanctions that are crippling its economy, while a senior Iranian official warned of a “painful response” if it comes under further attack.

Six months after U.S.-Israeli strikes against Iran, the war appears to be at a stalemate. A preliminary ceasefire accord reached in June has unravelled and little progress has been made in diplomatic efforts to get the peace process back on track.

After a pause in military action for much of August, tit-for-tat strikes have resumed with U.S. Central Command saying it hit three Iranian tankers on Saturday after Iran‘s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps launched ballistic missiles at two U.S. Navy ships.

Following the attacks, Iran‘s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf said on Sunday that the U.S. should understand that the rules of the game in the war against Iran have changed “before it is too late”.

“From now on, any attack against Iran’s interests and security will receive a faster, heavier and more painful response,” he said in a speech published on his Telegram channel.

Tehran has shown it retains the capability to attack U.S. interests in neighboring countries and to shut down oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, through which a fifth of global oil supplies flowed prior to the conflict.

ISTANBUL, Sept 6 (Reuters) – Six months after a conflict that rattled markets and pushed the Persian Gulf to the brink of a wider war, the tide may be turning against Iran as Washington unleashes an unprecedented economic offensive to achieve what military force could not.

After years of surviving sanctions, Tehran is now confronting one of the harshest squeezes in the Islamic Republic’s history, according to Iranian insiders and regional sources. A U.S. naval blockade and tougher sanctions are curbing oil exports, restricting access to foreign currency and exposing growing strains in the economy.

The campaign has led U.S. and regional officials to wager that mounting economic pressure can force Tehran to allow free passage through the Strait of Hormuz, which carries about a fifth of global oil and LNG supplies.

Their bet rests on a simple calculation: Iran is suffering more economic damage than it is inflicting. Efforts to choke off oil exports have cut state revenues, while attempts to disrupt shipping through Hormuz have not triggered the global economic shock Tehran hoped would force Washington to compromise. Energy markets have adjusted and alternative supplies have continued to flow.
Ancient Persian pigeon towers weren’t monuments bu Ancient Persian pigeon towers weren’t monuments built simply for birds.
They were part of an agricultural system. Pigeons roosted inside, their droppings were collected, and that nutrient-rich material could be used to fertilize crops and gardens.
What looks bizarre today was actually clever agricultural infrastructure.
Even bird droppings had value.

DUBAI, Sept 5 (Reuters) – U.S. and Iranian forces DUBAI, Sept 5 (Reuters) – U.S. and Iranian forces fired at vessels in waters around Iran on Saturday, including three Iranian oil carriers struck by the Americans and three tankers that Iran said it targeted while on unauthorized routes in the Strait of Hormuz.

U.S. Central Command said it struck the three Iranian vessels, including one off the coast of Kharg Island, near Iran‘s oil export hub, after Iran‘s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps launched ballistic missiles at two U.S. Navy ships.

“Let the message to the IRGC be clear: If you shoot at two of our ships, we will impose an even higher economic cost — taking out three of yours,” said Admiral Brad Cooper, head of U.S. Central Command, which oversees the U.S. military in the Middle East.

The IRGC responded by threatening intensified strikes against U.S. military vessels in the region, and said later it targeted the three tankers as well as three U.S.-linked vessels in other areas.

“Do not be deceived by the ‘terrorist’ U.S. military and refrain from any suspicious movement aimed at passing through unauthorized waterways,” the IRGC Navy said in a statement carried on Iranian state TV. “Otherwise, you will be targeted.”

Tasnim, the semi-official Iranian news agency, had reported that four U.S. missiles hit a tanker in the area of Kharg’s anchorage. Tasnim quoted local sources as saying there were no casualties and the tanker’s crew was being evacuated.

No American personnel were harmed, Central Command said.

The exchange of attacks followed an escalation in the past week that threatens to deepen a conflict that has continued since the U.S. and Israel launched strikes on Iran in February, disrupting global energy supplies and drawing opposition from a majority of Americans before congressional elections in November.
