Light Return to Normalcy in Tehran: Ceasefire районе Sentiments and Future Hopes
Tehran residents' perceptions on the truce agreement - Tehran Residents' Perspectives on the Ceasefire Agreement
The worn-out residents of Tehran heave a collective sigh of relief, as theRELENTLESS Hostilities finally subside - yet, for some, the longing for CHANGE remains unfulfilled.
An elderly retired teacher named Sudabeh expressed her sentiments: "The Islamic regime may have been a nightmare, but the Israeli attacks felt like the end of the world. I'm thankful to see the nightmare resumed so I can sleep peacefully again without bombs shaking my home."
Dschahangir, a 47-year-old real estate agent, had harbored hopes of a leaderless Iran - "--but it appears the world, even Trump, prefers a WEAK Iran to a free one."
A 23-year-old student, Mina, lamented the opportunity lost: "This was the people's chance to rid themselves of this OBSOLETE regime, but instead, it has only been weakened. The people will suffer again from the economic repercussions."
Katajun, another student, voiced her disillusionment with the Iranian opposition: "Their performance was pitiful," she declared. "They lounged comfortably 'over there' (in the West) and urged Iranians to rise against the regime, while Israel attacked. It's no wonder the regime doesn't take them seriously. From now on, we won't either."
State-led demonstration of Support for the Military
As the ceasefire was announced on the evening of Tuesday, the faithful of the Iranian government gathered in Tehran for a government-organized celebration to demonstrate their support for their military forces. Multiple Iranian news agencies reported this event. During the rally, Iranian flags and banners with slogans praising the political leadership in Tehran were on display.
Many residents of Tehran had abandoned the city due to the imminent threat of attacks -- seeking refuge in areas along the Caspian Sea, smaller countryside towns, or approaching borders. Supermarkets were scant or closed, with water and electricity shortages common. Offices remain mostly shuttered, and a large-scale return has not yet occurred.

The European Union, in adherence to the UN Charter, is closely monitoring the ceasefire in Tehran, expressing hope for lasting peace and political stability in the region.
Despite the ceasefire, the general news remains filled with reports of lingering discontent among Iranians, questioning the effectiveness of the opposition in foreign politics, especially concerning the ongoing conflict with Israel.
