Long line of cars waiting for fuel as local earthquake victims are in desperate need of aid.

Iran has the world's fourth largest crude oil reserves. Tehran provides fuel for its proxies abroad while ordinary Iranians suffer.

Locals say they sought aid from the Red Crescent where they were told to gather outside a local military base and they're providing tents.
At the military base no one provided any answers.
Officials have left the people to suffer.
