Iran’s Arab Minority Protests Daily Against State Repression

Hundreds, if not thousands, of Ahwazi Arabs have gathered in the capitol city of Iran’s Khuzestan province since Friday to protest against the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) corporation after they allegedly deliberately omitted any mention of the Arab culture during a children’s show celebrating Iran’s “diversity” on Nowruz, or the Persian New Year.
