Iran’s regime steps up brutality against Ahwazis, arrests over 1,000, including women, children, elderly

11.11.2018


The Iranian regime has accelerated its campaign of brutality and arbitrary arrests against Ahwazis, detaining over 1,000 in recent weeks, including children aged between 10 and 15, women, and elderly people aged over 76.

According to activists in the Ahwaz region in the south and southwest of Iran, the regime forces are targeting not only dissidents but their families and random individuals in an effort to silence dissent and intimidate the people into abandoning their calls for freedom and human rights.
