Snow fell in parts of Tehran on Tuesday night, blanketing the Iranian capital with a layer of white after air strikes on oil depots caused days of dark skies and black rain.
But life goes on, even as the war drags on.
Sahar, a woman in her 20s, told BBC Persian that she was spending most days sheltering at home in Tehran, cooking, reading, and playing a life simulation video game.
"I think my creativity has increased during the war. I'm constantly stressed and end up building prettier homes in the game," she said.
Sahar - whose name, as with the other contributors, has been changed for safety reasons - found out on Tuesday that a woman she had gone to school with had been killed.
