The Iranian government announced on Tuesday it was banning exports of all food and agricultural products as the war with Israel and the United States raged for a fourth day. "The export of all food and agricultural products has been banned until further notice," Tasnim news agency said, citing a government statement.
"The government has prioritised the supply of essential goods for the people," it added.
Iran has activated contingency plans since Saturday when the United States and Israel launched attacks on the Islamic republic, killing the country's supreme leader along with senior military commanders.
