Boosting for building dams vs. preventing Ahwazi farmers from forming

According to trusted source within Al-Ahwaz stated that Khuzestan Water and Power Authority Company has issued strict warning to all formers in Khalafyeh (Ramshir) city from forming a few days ago. 

This notice comes to all farmers who are farming on both sides of Jarrahi River and preparing themselves for the actual planting season for the autumn and winter, which includes wheat and barley.

According to document received by Ahwazi Centre for Human Rights (ACHR) on 01-MAY 2015, the same company prevent the Ahwazi farmers who are farming near to Karkheh River and basin.

The authorities also justified the decision for lack of water behind the Karkheh dam and the needs of people for drinking water but they do not mentioned their vicious plans for building mass dams on Ahwazi rivers were lead to this disastrous situation.

The construction of dams rapidly and random, led to widespread drought in the Ahwazi rivers, where Al-Ahwaz region has ample water sources, due to the existence of a permanent flowing rivers, such as the Karun and Karkheh, and Dez Rivers. However, the water level of these rivers fallen since 2005, where the water level fell by 65% in Dez River, and 45% in Karoon River 50% in Karkheh River, and this is dangerous index because the farmers in this case can not irrigate their land easily!

Premeditated chlorine gas attack was launched against Ahwazi civilians

Iranian authorities have failed to implement an ethnic cleansing operationin Al-Ahwaz, which was nearly claiming the lives of thousands of innocent people who were secure in their homes in Qalaat Chanan southeast of the capital of Al-Ahwaz in the evening of Saturday 12-September 2015.

The failure came after thousands of the region's population rushed to the streets as a result of inhalation of chlorine toxic gas swept through the highly populated area of Qalaat Chanan. 

The Iranian pro-media announced that the gas spread due to opening a bottle containing chlorine gas by an addicted in the Qalaat Chanan’s neighborhood. In contrast, residents of the area denied this news through interviews they had with the media. 

However, the story entirely different from what the resident has witnesses where they said that suspected were more than one person and wearing masks during the 100 Kilograms bottle weight of chlorine gas discharge, and then fled from the scene and police and security forces came to the scene with a delay that exceeded four hours. 

The Iranian media has published conflicting statistics about the number of victims of inhaling chlorine gas, where “asre-ma” website has published an estimated proportion of infected people that are more than six hundred and majority of those affected and poisoned people were transferred to nearby hospital after four hours delay for the distance that do not exceed 12 Kilo Meter between the place of incident and ambulance place.
