Iron market traders in Tehran stopped work, closing shops to protest the rial's decline. Reports also circulated on social media of protests at Tehran’s Charsou mall.

Mobile phone traders gathered outside Tehran’s Alaeddin and Iran Mobile shopping centers on Sunday after closing their shops, according to eyewitnesses and videos sent to Iran International.

Iran's rial weakened to new historic lows on Sunday, falling to about 1,445,000 per dollar, according to open market rates, extending a prolonged slide.
