The city of Ahvaz in southwest Iran has been the scene of continuous unrest.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tensions continue to rise between the new U.S. administration and Iran with a series of actions and reactions. Most recently, Iran has launched a new round of military drills, embarking on more provocative actions, while U.S. allies such as Saudi Arabia and Israel have joined in by issuing what is described as twin warnings to Iran. Wrote Heshmat Alavi in AL-Arabiya on February 22.<\/p>\n

All the while, what should not go neglected is the simmering status inside Iran. The society is considered a powder keg as unrest continues to grow after 38 years of the mullahs\u2019 atrocious dictatorship. The last four years of the so-called \u201cmoderate\u201d or \u201creformist\u201d Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has also failed to yield any demands raised by the people despite claiming to hold the \u201ckey\u201d to all problems.<\/p>\n

The city of Ahvaz in southwest Iran has been the scene of continuous unrest, as locals are protesting a slate of disastrous plans implemented by the mullahs\u2019 regime to reroute Karoon River, a major source of water for agriculture and other vital aspects of life in this area where the summer is scorching hot.<\/p>\n

These projects include also the diversion of waters from Karkhe River, excessive dam construction and the oil ministry resorting to inexpensive oil extraction methods. This practice, mainly implemented by the Revolutionary Guards, has fruited a long list of dried local lakes and ponds.<\/p>\n

The result has been nothing but increasing air pollution and water and power being frequently cut off. To this end, the people\u2019s very health is in danger as clean air to breath is literally hard to find.<\/p>\n

Banks, administrative offices, schools and universities have been closed in nearly a dozen Khuzestan Province cities. Even oil production, which Tehran seems to boast to have escalated above 4 million barrels per day now, has suffered tremendously with a 770,000-barrel nosedive.<\/p>\n

Growing street protests<\/strong><\/p>\n

However, the most concerning aspect of the entire situation for the regime involves the growing number of street protests that began on February 12th and continued for at least a week in the face of numerous warnings issued by the repressive state security apparatus.<\/p>\n

And despite heavy security measures to prevent any escalation of such rallies, even a gathering brewed in Tehran\u2019s Vanak Square where protesters expressed solidarity with their fellow countrymen and chanted against the mullahs\u2019 regime.<\/p>\n

While demonstrators were protesting the lack of vital daily services, the atmosphere quickly grew political with the crowd beginning to chant \u201cDeath to tyranny,\u201d \u201cDeath to repression,\u201d \u201cWe the people of Ahvaz will not accept oppression,\u201d Expel incompetent officials,\u201d \u201cAhvaz is our city, clean air is our right,\u201d and \u201cShame on state police.\u201d<\/p>\n

Iranian opposition leader Maryam Rajavi hailed the people of Khuzestan, and especially Ahvaz, while calling on all Iranians to rise in support. The mullahs\u2019 regime is the main source of all major and minor dilemmas in Iran, which in this case has resulted in the people being deprived of water and power services, alongside growing unemployment and rampaging diseases threatening the locals, Rajavi added.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne cannot expect the mullahs\u2019, the regime\u2019s leaders and officials to provide any solutions,\u201d she added, calling upon the entire nation to support the deprived people of Khuzestan, most especially the ill and vulnerable.<\/p>\n

While the province is rich in oil, the locals have yet to enjoy any benefits. Home to one million inhabitants, the city of Ahvaz is plagued by a large number of surrounding petrochemical factories that emit a large scale of pollutants. This has left locals engulfed in environmental challenges reaching the point where the World Health Organization ranked Ahvaz as the world\u2019s most polluted city in 2015.<\/p>\n

The situation has been described as \u201cterrible and extremely complex\u201d by activists and locals complaining the regime only seeks to make money from their lands. The regime responded to the unrest by issuing a statement warning people to refrain from \u201cillegal gatherings\u201d and serious action will be taken against any and all violators.<\/p>\n

Western reporters banned<\/strong><\/p>\n

Riot police units have also been dispatched to Ahvaz, in addition to additional forces from neighboring provinces. Authorities banned many Western reporters from visiting the city, raising even more concerns about the regime\u2019s true intentions.<\/p>\n

The regime continues to fail to respond to the people\u2019s demands, as all the country\u2019s budget is allocated to warmongering across the region, including Iran\u2019s involvement in Syria, the regime\u2019s nuclear and ballistic missile program and a massive crackdown machine missioned to clamp down on any dissent and resorting to atrocious human rights violations in the process.<\/p>\n

Rest assured the scenes witnessed recently in Ahvaz are only a prelude to more intense episodes of future rallies in different cities across the country that will rattle the mullahs\u2019 entire foundation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
