Drought Crisis Reaches Karun River
Official sources have stated that the drought crisis has reached the Karun River in Ahwaz, causing a sharp decline in rainfall levels and posing a serious threat to water resources.
The sources emphasized, “It is essential to control water consumption, especially in the agricultural sector, and to impose restrictions on the cultivation of water-intensive crops.”
The Karun River is the primary lifeline of the occupied Arab state of Ahwaz, providing water for its inhabitants and agricultural fields.
In recent years, the river has been facing escalating crises due to the policies of the Iranian occupation authorities in Ahwaz. These policies include diverting water to other inland regions and constructing dams, depriving the Ahwazi people of their fair share of water.
