Meanwhile, failed uprisings in Bahrain and eastern Saudi Arabia were followed by years-long crackdowns and a continuing civil war in Syria. “What we’re beginning to see in Saudi Arabia right now is the emergence of a new social contract. Saudi Arabia is the world’s biggest exporter of crude oil, and nearly two-thirds of its income still comes from selling fossil fuels.

Several countries, including Venezuela, Argentina and Sudan have been saddled with skyrocketing costs for decades. In advanced economies overall, inflation averaged 2.4% since the 1990s – the earliest aggregate data the IMF has available. In 2022, Venezuelan inflation was still 310%, the highest in the world that year. “Because everything will be more expensive tomorrow, people spend their money as they receive it, increasing the inflation,” Anselmi told CNN. Using US currency for transactions is common in Venezuela, as people don’t trust the volatile local currency, according to Guevara.

Taliban security forces guard a checkpoint near the foreign ministry in Kabul on March 27, after an ISIS-K suicide bomber struck the site. The data, which is available in a live map, includes 367 pieces of open-source evidence — largely videos and images shared on social media — about 70 ISIS-K attacks since August 2021. As the Taliban try to minimize the threat ISIS-K poses, attacks on civilians continue. Taliban security forces have been waging ongoing operations and night raids against ISIS-K.
