Drug addiction, divorce, and other social issues are also highly prevalent there; which is reflective of the unjust and faulty structure that govern them.<\/p>\n<p>The inappropriate division of wealth within these provinces, the lack of attention to their economic potential, and their ineffective management, are some of the causes behind their poor development.<\/p>\n<p>Many residents of Kurdistan, Kermanshah, and Western Azerbaijan are struggling to meet their basic needs; as a result, a lot of them, young and old, are forced into \u2018Kolbari\u2019 (in other words, the carriage of heavy goods, on horsebacks or own backs) across the mountains, central lands, and turbulent rivers; and ultimately risk losing their lives.<\/p>\n<p>There are nearly 80000 \u2018Kolbars\u2019 in Iran now. Taking into account their family members too, approximately 400000 people are involved in the occupation of \u2018Kolbari\u2019; millions of businesses, shops, and sectors, are also impacted by them, directly and indirectly.<\/p>\n<p>Every year, dozens of \u2018Kolbars\u2019 are shot dead or wounded by the security forces of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. According to the latest reports, 4 \u2018Kolbars\u2019 have been shot dead and 7 wounded, just over the past 10 days (from 21st \u2013 31st May 2018).<\/p>\n<p>In the regime\u2019s follow-up of \u2018Kolbari\u2019 issues, several recommendations have been made; such as, the creation of \u2018free zones\u2019 along the borders, insuring \u2018Kolbars\u2019, and giving them special custom-discounts, in order to encourage and direct them across the legal borders of the country&#8230; however, nothing useful has come out of these talks; in fact, \u2018kolbars\u2019 are faced with even more challenges now, such as the enclosure of many pathways.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Kolbar-2\" class=\" size-full wp-image-51419\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-2.jpg\" alt=\"Kolbar-2\" width=\"800\" height=\"493\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-2-300x185.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-2-768x473.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-2-696x429.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Kolbar-3\" class=\" size-full wp-image-51420\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-3.jpg\" alt=\"Kolbar-3\" width=\"800\" height=\"475\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-3-300x178.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-3-768x456.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-3-696x413.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Kolbar-4\" class=\" size-full wp-image-51421\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-4.jpg\" alt=\"Kolbar-4\" width=\"800\" height=\"449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-4.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-4-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-4-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-4-696x391.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Kolbar-5\" class=\" size-full wp-image-51422\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-5.jpg\" alt=\"Kolbar-5\" width=\"800\" height=\"478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-5.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-5-300x179.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-5-768x459.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-5-696x416.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Kolbar-6\" class=\" size-full wp-image-51423\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-6.jpg\" alt=\"Kolbar-6\" width=\"800\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-6.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-6-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-6-768x461.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-6-696x418.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Kolbar-7\" class=\" size-full wp-image-51424\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-7.jpg\" alt=\"Kolbar-7\" width=\"800\" height=\"608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-7.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-7-300x228.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-7-768x584.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Kolbar-7-696x529.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Staff Writer There seems to exist a link between the geographical locations and the observed levels of deprivation across Iran.
