A disturbing incident has unfolded at a store in Shandiz, Iran, leaving two unveiled women shaken after being attacked with yogurt by an enraged man. The footage captures the chaotic scene, showing the suspect swiftly grabbing a tub of yogurt and hurling it in the direction of the two women, striking both on the head.
The attack appears to be linked to the victims' decision to wear Western-style clothing without covering themselves, which is considered taboo under Iran's strict Islamic laws. The exact sequence of events leading up to the confrontation remains unclear, as CNN was unable to verify what was said prior to the incident.
Eyewitnesses report that a male store staff member quickly intervened, taking the suspect into custody and preventing further harm. The incident highlights the ongoing struggles faced by Iranian women who choose to defy traditional dress codes in public.

this is so messed up the fact that someone could attack two women over their clothes just blows my mind what's wrong with some people not respecting other people's choices to wear what they want, and especially when it comes from a place of empowerment and freedom... I mean, in today's world we should be learning to accept and appreciate differences, not beating people up over them 
the fact that this incident is linked to Iran's strict laws just highlights how backwards some societies can be, but it doesn't make it okay 
these women were simply minding their own business and then get attacked for being themselves, it's heartbreaking... we need more people standing up against hate and intolerance, not perpetuating it 
Either way, two women were hurt and shaken, so let's hope they're okay.
I'm not surprised about this incident, it's like, we've seen similar cases popping up all over the world where people get upset when they don't understand something new. Like, come on, if you can't handle a little bit of exposure and freedom, maybe you should just stay home? 
The fact that these two women were attacked for wearing Western-style clothing is just ridiculous, I mean, it's like they're the ones who are supposed to be oppressed or something. 
. I mean, what's wrong with just having plain old yogurt and honey? Don't even get me started on the annoying sound that container of yogurt makes when you twist off the top 
. And can we talk about store security for a sec? How does a tub of yogurt just happen to be lying around waiting to be used as a projectile? 
.
This is just heartbreaking... People are still struggling with outdated attitudes and a lack of understanding towards individual freedom 
It's disheartening to see that some people are so caught up in their own biases and prejudices, they'd lash out at others for simply wearing what makes them feel confident and comfortable 
. The incident highlights the need for greater education and acceptance towards different cultures and ways of life 
. We should all strive to be more empathetic and understanding towards others, especially when we're faced with something that's unfamiliar or challenging our comfort zones 
.
its like they think they have a right to judge others over their clothing choices... newsflash: its NOT about the dress, its about respect! and btw who needs yogurt when you can just throw something else like a rock or a shoe?? 
let's hope this guy gets some serious consequences for his actions...
. I mean, I get that Iran has these strict laws and all, but come on, can't people just chill? It's like, women are already under so much pressure and scrutiny all the time, do they really need to deal with some dude getting huffy over what they're wearing? 
. This whole situation is just, like, so frustrating 
OMG, this is so messed up! I mean, can you even believe someone would do that to two girls for wearing the wrong clothes? 
It's just so sad that these women have to face that kind of harassment because they're not conforming to what society expects them to be. 
its so sad that womens rights are still bein pushed around in iran like, cant they just live their lives without gettin attacked for wearin what they want to wear? 
It's a bit of a gray area, but I guess that's why we need more education and open conversations about our values and customs. Let's just hope this doesn't happen again to anyone else 
.
... I mean, what's next? A can of spray cheese? 
.
It's like, what's the point of even wearing a mask on social media if there are people out there still willing to lash out at others for their fashion choices? 
And yeah, I get it, Iran has its laws and all, but can't we just agree to disagree on this stuff? 
The fact that they were able to wear Western-style clothing without covering themselves is basically a personal choice, you know? 
. It's like, respect individuality and personal freedom, you know? 
. We need to be more accepting and understanding 
! I mean, who gets attacked with yogurt because they're wearing the wrong clothes? 
. But seriously, this is a huge problem for Iranian women who are already facing so much oppression just because of their fashion choices.
Just kidding, but seriously, who are we kidding here? These laws need to change, like, now! 
.
. It's time for a change! 
. And I'm just imagining those two women running out of the store, covered in yogurt, and just...
