"I can't release the poverty numbers — there are security restrictions."
That is Iran's government spokesperson, Fatemeh Mohajerani, at an official podium, classifying the number of Iranians living in extreme poverty — people who simply do not get enough food — as a national security matter.
The reporter pushes:
▪️ How many live in extreme poverty?
▪️ What happened to housing?
▪️ How many sold their cars?
▪️ How many can no longer afford a dentist?
The answer: silence, hesitation, and a deferral to "sources authorized to speak."
One number escaped:
🔴 Food inflation: 121.5% — admitted by Iran's own Central Bank.
When a state treats its people's hunger as classified information, this is no longer just an economic crisis — it is systematic concealment. A statistic that is never published is a poverty that is officially denied.
Save this clip. Share the admission. Tell us in the comments: what does your grocery bill look like this month?
