Protests have been raging on the streets of Khuzestan, an Iranian province in the country’s southwest, which is home to most of Iran’s Arab Ahwaz minority and has seen many waves of demonstrations in the past.
The protests erupted on July 15 in response to a severe water shortage causing suffering for the province’s residents. Since then, demonstrations have spread outside the region and, on Monday, people reportedly marched in the streets of the capital Tehran.
