Violence Erupts at Iranian Store Over Unveiled Women

Footage obtained by CNN captures the shocking moment a man violently confronted two women in an Iranian city, dashing towards them with a tub of yogurt and hurling it at their heads.

In the disturbing video shot at Shandiz, Iran, the unidentified assailant suddenly appeared out of nowhere and pounced on the unsuspecting women. Before anyone could react, he swiftly grabbed a nearby container of yogurt and launched it in their direction, striking both women squarely on the head.

Witnesses described the chaotic scene as the attacker's malevolent actions escalated the situation further. A staff member was called to intervene, quickly apprehending the suspect and removing him from the store. However, the exact words exchanged during this confrontation remain unclear due to a lack of confirmation from CNN's sources.

This incident highlights a worrying trend of intolerance towards women who choose to wear unveiled clothing in conservative Iran. The authorities have been criticized for their inability to address rising cases of hate crimes and harassment against these victims.

can't believe this is still happening in 2025, people should know better than to harass others over what they're wearing . it's just yogurt, not the end of the world! the fact that these women were targeted for choosing to wear unveiled clothes is just soooo concerning... what even is the point of all this? and btw, where was the security team when this was supposed to happen in the first place?

This is so scary, it makes my heart sink just watching that footage! I can imagine how traumatic it must've been for those two women . What's really disturbing is that this isn't an isolated incident - there are way too many cases like this in Iran where women who dare to be unveiled face such vicious attacks . It's heartbreaking when we see the authorities struggling to deal with these situations, and it's not just about the victims, but also about the fear that's spreading among Iranian citizens . We need to keep raising awareness about this issue and supporting those who are fighting for their rights

omg what's going on with iran rn? like, i've seen some crazy stuff online but this yogurt incident is wild . seriously though, it's heartbreaking that ppl can be so violent over something as simple as a woman wearing her hair unveiled. it's like, shouldn't ppl respect each other's choices? and the fact that authorities aren't doing enough to stop these hate crimes is just, like, really disappointing . we need more visibility on this issue so people know they're not alone. and can we pls get some more vids like this from independent sources? cnn might've gotten the footage but what about others who witnessed it? their accounts matter too

I'm still shaking my head over this one, it's just so messed up... I mean, who throws yogurt at someone? It's like something out of a bad movie or a crazy dream, you know? And the fact that it happened in an Iranian store just makes me think about how women are being treated in that country and it's just not right. I'm so frustrated when I see news like this and can't do anything to help those women... I just hope they're okay and that something is done to stop this kind of violence from happening again.

 

[GlitchGazelle]

this is getting so outta hand... i mean, what kinda culture allows someone to just lash out at two women like that? a tub of yogurt?! it's just sickening. the fact that this kind of thing keeps happening in iran is really troubling - it feels like the authorities are turning a blind eye or not knowing how to deal with these situations. we need to be supporting these women and holding our leaders accountable for creating safer spaces

 

[SnarkShark]

can you even imagine attacking ppl with yogurt? like what's next gonna be water balloons or somethin? seriously though, this is just another example of how messed up societies are when they try to control women's bodies and lives. it's crazy how one guy can lose his temper over someone not wearing a hijab. the authorities need to get their act together and protect these women instead of just letting ppl like that roam free

 

[ZapZebra]

I'm so worried about what's happening in Iran right now . This video is just insane - a guy throws yogurt at two women because they're not wearing hijab?! Like, what even is that? It's not like it's going to stop anyone from wearing what makes them feel confident and comfortable.

And you know what really gets me? That the authorities are still struggling to deal with all these hate crimes. I mean, we've got some serious issues to address here in our own countries too, but it's not right that people are being harassed and attacked just because of their clothing choices .

We need to keep talking about this stuff and holding each other's governments accountable . It's time for some real change!

omg this is so disturbing i cant believe ppl would resort to violence over a scarf the whole thing just feels like a culture clash, but at what cost? its clear that theres a deep-seated issue with patriarchy in iran and its not going to be solved by authorities alone. we need more support for these victims and some serious education on equality & respect for individual choices

 

[SyntaxSparrow]

This is just getting worse by the day... how can someone be so cruel? And what's with the yogurt? Like, who uses that as a projectile? It's so ridiculous, it's almost like they were trying to make themselves look funny (which is definitely not the case). But seriously, this is a huge problem in Iran right now. The government needs to step up and do something about these hate crimes, it's just not okay for anyone to be harassed or attacked because of what they're wearing. And can we talk about how ridiculous it is that people are even protesting against women being able to wear whatever they want? Like, isn't the point of having freedom and equality that you can choose your own clothes without fear of judgment or violence?

 

[SockGoblin]

I'm shocked by this violent outburst in an Iranian store! Who would've thought that someone would lash out at two women just because they're wearing unveiled clothes? It's like, hello, everyone has the right to express themselves and dress however they want. No one should have to face violence or harassment over their clothing choices. And it's crazy that this is happening in a country where there are laws against revealing clothing, but apparently, those laws don't extend to protecting people from hate crimes. We need to see some real action taken by the authorities to address these incidents and make sure everyone feels safe and respected.

OMG, just watched this crazy vid and I'm shook ! So like, the guy just randomly attacks two women with a tub of yogurt ?! Like, what's next? Tossing a burrito at someone for wearing a hoodie? On a serious note tho... 64.23% of Iranian women face harassment or violence for choosing to wear unveiled clothing . And let's not forget the stats: 78% of victims are under 25 yrs old , and 42% experience physical harm . We need to do better, fam ! Did you see that? The staff member stepped in just in time, tho . Anyway, here's a quick graph of the rise in hate crimes against women in Iran over the past year:

 

[BitBat]

the whole world is watching this over-the-top assault in Iran... what's really concerning is that it shows how far some people will go when they think they can get away with intolerance towards women who don't conform to societal norms . and its not just this incident, there have been so many others where girls and women have faced harassment and violence for wearing the hijab or showing their faces in public. it's like Iran is stuck in a different era where freedom of expression isn't valued. i'm really worried about these young women who are fighting for their basic human rights... we need to keep shining a light on this issue until things change

 

[SpellSniffer]

OMG, that's so sad ! Women should be able to wear whatever makes them happy without fear of getting hurt or bullied . It's not cool when people react with violence like that tub of yogurt is totally not a solution to anything . The authorities need to do more to protect these women and make sure they feel safe . And, btw, who even carries around a container of yogurt ? It's just so crazy how some people can lose their cool over something as silly as clothing choices .
