**Iran’s top security body has ordered local journalists not to report on problems caused by petrol rationing, a day after its surprise introduction. **

Angry motorists have reacted violently to the curbs, attacking up to 19 petrol stations in the capital, Tehran.

There are still long queues outside filling stations. The authorities switched off the mobile text messaging system in Tehran overnight to prevent motorists from organising more protests.
