Villagers Protest Lack of Drinking Water<\/h3>\n

February 15: In a village located in Lorestan<\/strong> Province, western Iran, workers of a rail station rallied on Saturday, February 15, protesting not having access to water for ten days.<\/p>\n

\n

Locals of this village all work for the rail company and their homes have not had any access to water.<\/p>\n

It is worth noting that their village is located near Khorramabad<\/strong>, the capital of Lorestan Province. The village has a small population of 214 people (52 families) and regime officials don\u2019t have the competence to provide drinking water for these innocent people.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

On Saturday, February 15, a group of employees working in toll booths of the Zanjan-Qazvin<\/strong> areas in northwest Iran held a rally protesting not receiving their due wages. This gathering was held outside a local Road and Construction Department in the city of Qazvin. Since March 2019 these toll booth employees have been protesting many times and officials are refusing to see to their dilemmas and just demands.<\/p>\n

Families of SMA Patients Cry for Government Support<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

MEK sources reported that on Saturday, February 15, 2020, a group of handicaps’ advocates and families of patients suffering SMA held a protest gathering before the Iranian regime’s Health Ministry. They protested the lack of support from the government for SMA patients. A mother of one of the patients cried: “over one year, we have lost 80 children and nobody takes responsibility. Authorities are very carefree. The victims are not their children, they are ours. If they were their children, they would have imported the medicine required by now.” “We will stand here till we get our rights.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Iranian Regime Kills Porters<\/h3>\n

The MEK network reported that on Sunday, February 16, 2020, the Iranian regime’s agents opened fire on a group of porters near the borders in the Western city of Paveh, killing one porter, Ahmad, and injuring five more.<\/p>\n

One of the injured is Azim Aminzadeh from the village of Narvi. The reports indicate that following the incident, a group of people and the families of the victims, particularly their mothers protested that the local Police station was responsible for the murder.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Protest Gatherings<\/h3>\n

MEK sources inside Iran reported that on Sunday, February 16, 2020, workers of the Choucka Co. near the city of Talesh, (Northern province of Gilan), held a gathering protesting about their salary.<\/p>\n

In another event,\u00a0the MEK<\/a> network reported that on Saturday, February 15, 2020, a group of workers from the Mahshahr Petrochemical Distribution held a gathering before the company’s office.<\/p>\n

The company recently fired many workers collectively in order to replace them with pro-regime personnel. This inhumane measure, particularly when the Iranian New Year is approaching, has put the workers in a desperate situation.<\/p>\n

The workers were holding placards that read: “for how long injustice” and ” beware of God! \u201cthe report added.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Angry People Torch Banners of Regime’s Candidates<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Reports from Iran indicate that on Saturday, February 15, 2020, angry people set fire to the advertising banners of the regime’s candidates for the coming sham parliamentary elections in the southern city of Iranshahr and the city of Alvand in the province of Qazvin.<\/p>\n
