Iran Doubles Gas Prices as Rouhani Reignites Rift Over Ending War

Iran doubles gasoline prices for heavy users as economic pressure mounts, while former President Hassan Rouhani reignites an internal debate over whether Tehran should continue the war.

In this episode of Epic Fury, we examine Iran's new fuel price increase, the risk of renewed domestic unrest, and Rouhani's call for a dignified end to the conflict and greater public involvement in deciding whether the war should continue.

We also examine the latest US-Iran military confrontation in the Strait of Hormuz, including competing Iranian and American claims over attacks on US naval vessels, Iran's reported missile test claims, and the movement of Iranian oil tankers through the contested waterway.

The episode also explores the growing political divide inside Iran between figures pushing for an end to the war and hardliners demanding continued resistance, as well as the economic impact of the Hormuz crisis, rising oil prices, US sanctions, and pressure on global energy markets.

Plus: the latest developments involving the United States, Iran, Israel, Lebanon, Iraq, the Revolutionary Guard, the Pentagon, and the wider geopolitical consequences of the US-Iran war.

Epic Fury: The US-Iran War Podcast delivers a daily analysis of the military, political, economic and diplomatic developments shaping the conflict.
