Dozens of villages and towns have been evacuated in southern Iran as authorities issued warnings for a fresh round of flooding in the regions bordering Iraq.


Mullahs regime use

The Iranian regime, however, made sure to take advantage of such crisis in light of its schemes of demographic changes, which include getting rid of the people of Ahwaz and submerging their identity along with the floods.

Reports and activists have affirmed that the Iranian regime has been attempting to displace the Arab population from their lands and disperse their presence.

The regime is seeking to take advantage of the floods crisis by submerging villages in Ahvaz to force their residents to leave their homes and lands and then be replace with other nationalities like the Bakhtiaris and Lurs.

Reports have revealed that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps are trying to block the floods from reaching their established oil facilities by diverting the water flow towards the houses of Arab citizens, which led to armed clashes with the IRGC. At least nine citizens were killed during these clashes.

The floods have killed at least 70 people, and forced the mass evacuation of thousands, as heavy rain continues to fall on much of the country.

Reports said at least 1,900 cities and villages have been flooded, "causing hundreds of millions of dollars of damage to Iranian water and agriculture infrastructures."

Iranian affairs expert Mohamed Alaa Eddin said the Iranian scheme to force Arabs to leave the country comes with an attempt to “Persianize” the whole country by imposing the Persian language, culture and Shiism.

“The oppressive Mullahs regime occasionally seeks to displace these populations in several ways, including the drainage of rivers and changing their courses to areas with a Persian majority, not to mention destroying Ahwazi villages,” Alaa Eddin told The Reference in an interview.

Iranian authorities have repeatedly admitted in the past weeks that Iran cannot afford to compensate the losses of the recent flash-floods that began March 18.
