In addition to the dangers of floods, the most serious threat to the lives of people in those areas is the movement of thousands of mines that have not been neutralized since the Iran-Iraq war. The movement of these mines threatens the lives of the inhabitants. \"
This human rights activist says: For several years, the government has deliberately avoided to neutralize mines despite international donations. One of these reasons is the delimitation of the boundary between Iran and Iraq, based on the 1975 Algerian treaty between Iran and Iraq. The majority of peoples in these areas are farmers and will be catastrophic in their agricultural lands. Please inform people to prevent this human disaster.
