Protests Continue in Iran
On Friday, March 15, 2019, contracting workers in the 12th phase of the South Pars Gas Field (a super-giant gas field located in the Persian Gulf between Kangan and Assaluyeh), who are working at the 9th refinery, continued their strike and gathering. These workers, whose number was about 100 person, have not received the salaries of February, Persian New Year Compensation.
Committee of Australian Supporters of Democracy in Iran supported workers strikes by calling on the UNSG
In a statement issued on the critical situation of varied sectors of the Iranian people, the CASDI responded to numerous acts of repressions and arrests adding: “Even as the regime violates the most basic rights of Iranian citizens, the people assert their right to protest and strike. The living conditions of the various strata, including workers, farmers and teachers, are now very hard, and millions are below the poverty line, on March12, 2019.
The people’s uprising and the political situation are on the verge of breakthroughs, and the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran and their resistance units are a factor sustaining the protests and the desire of the Iranian people to change the dictatorship.
It partially reads : “...Australian Supporters of Democracy in Iran supports the resistance of the Iranian people who seek to change this dictatorship. We declare solidarity with the Iranian workers, students and teachers. We urge public authorities, human rights defenders, labor federations and trade unions to condemn the mullahs’ regime which denies the rights of Iranian citizens. We call on them to help the people of Iran in all possible ways in their claim for all their democratic and human rights.”
