 Tehran, Iran, Apr. 13 – A group of people gathered
outside the offices of the water organisation in
the south-western town of Masjid Soleiman
in protest to four days of continuous cut-off of water supplies, the
state-run daily Hamshahri reported on Thursday.
The districts of Chahar-Bisheh, Naftak, Reyl-Vey, Hasht-Bangaleh, Koulershap, Kargeh, as well as the town centre and the main market
have all been without water for the past four days, the report said.
Among the protesters was the head of the local hospital who complained that
patients were at risk because of the sudden drop in hygiene due to lack of
water. “Imagine what a dangerous situation arises when a hospital’s
drinking water is cut off for four days”, he said.
