[49038] The consequences of the war in Iran: The government commits to paying unemployment benefits and compensation to those affected

Economic coping with the consequences of the war in Iran

In the shadow of security tensions and their consequences on the economy, senior officials in Iran's social security system attempted to reassure the public regarding the stability of payments. The National Insurance Organization stated that despite the economic pressures and difficulties caused by what is called the "imposed war," the government is committed to transferring unemployment benefits on time. According to reports from the IRNA news agency, about 150,000 workers received these benefits in the past year, but an increase in the number of applicants is expected as a result of the situation.

At the same time, Adel Dehdashti, Deputy Head of the National Insurance Organization, provided expanded data on the organization's conduct, according to which about 5.2 million people across the country receive monthly payments totaling 55 trillion Tomans (known as "the Mat"). These data were also widely published by other media outlets such as Khorasan Online and Iran War News.

In the field of urban rehabilitation, Ali Nassiri, head of the Organization for the Prevention and Crisis Management in Tehran, reported progress in dealing with the damage of the "Ramadan War." According to his words, over 80% of the 38,179 housing units that suffered minor damage have mostly been repaired, including the replacement of doors and windows. In addition, according to an IRNA report, the authorities handled requests for compensation for over 11,000 vehicles and motorcycles that were damaged during the fighting.
