Nearly three weeks of military conflict in Iran have severely impacted the historic Grand Bazaar in Tehran. Usually a bustling center of commerce, the bazaar's alleys are now seeing many shuttered storefronts and skyrocketing prices, further straining an economy already weakened by years of international sanctions.
