Young people in Tehran say daily life continues despite air strikes and fear during the Iran war. Residents told BBC Persian they spend most of their time indoors as bombings shake the city. Streets and metro stations are mostly empty, and many families have left for safer areas. Some residents said their sleep schedules now depend on the timing of attacks. With internet access heavily restricted, many people are secretly using Starlink to contact relatives abroad. Despite the danger, people say they are trying to keep hope alive. “Even under missiles, we carry on living,” one resident said, as Iranians prepare for Nowruz.
