by Tyler Durden Thursday, Jul 22, 2021 - 07:40 PM Water and power shortage protests in Iran have now been raging continuously for one week, resulting in multiple deaths and injuries particularly out of the restive southwest oil-rich province of Khuzestan, including the death of a police officer.  State media by mid-week has reported a death toll of three: According to the state-run IRNA news agency, gunfire killed the officer in the city of Mahshar and another suffered a gunshot wound to his leg, the AP reports citing state sources.  Tehran has presented the violence and killings as the fault of rioters while the State Department early in the week referenced reports of security forces indiscriminately opening fire on peaceful protesters.
