widespreadAccording to reports received by the Karun Human Rights Organization, during the violent suppression of widespread protests in Ahwaz, the number of injured individuals has reached at least 300, based solely on figures from Golestan Hospital, Karmi Hospital, and Amir Kabir Hospital. This figure reflects the scale and severity of the violence used against civilians.
Eyewitnesses report that Basij forces, many of whom were teenagers and young men, opened fire on protesters using live ammunition and pellet guns.
A number of the injured have sustained serious wounds as a result of direct bullet impacts or pellet shots.
At the same time, over the past two days, telephone communications have been severely disrupted, with many areas experiencing only one-way calls. This disruption has significantly hindered the transfer of the wounded and the ability to share information about their medical condition.
According to these reports, protests have spread from the Golestan neighborhood to the Saadi area, while demonstrations in the Goldasht district have continued for four consecutive nights. Security forces have attempted to intensify their control by setting up roadblocks and encircling the city with concrete barriers.
As of the time of this report, official authorities have provided no statistics or explanations regarding the number of injured or killed.
