The corner shop near Jalal's home has a new sign taped to its door. "Ask for prices before you shop, because they go up," it reads.

"And they really do," says Jalal, a 35-year-old Iranian who recently lost his job at a small factory near Tehran. "Prices are going up by the hour."

On Tuesday, he bought a small pack of cheese for 270,000 tomans (£1.12). On Wednesday, the same was 370,000 (£1.54). "The shop owner says most of the time he cannot buy the same item at the same price the next day, so he raises his prices," he said.

In Iran, the average daily salary is one million toman, which is about £4.20 at current falling market rates. But prices across the country are climbing so fast that shopkeepers cannot keep pace, and families are being pushed towards crisis.

Ordinary Iranians, such as Jalal, are paying the price for two crises they did not create.
