On Assignment

Inside Iran: A video diary

The whole world can see the missiles flying over the Middle East. But what does life actually look like inside Iran right now? Reuters correspondent Ahmed Jadallah and his team became one of the first Reuters crews to report from Tehran in over a decade — navigating internet blackouts, restricted access, and nightly airstrikes to bring back something rare: the human story. In this episode of On Assignment, Jadallah takes us through the streets of Tehran — into bazaars and bombed-out buildings, through funerals and government rallies — to hear from ordinary Iranians trying to hold their lives together in wartime.
