Iran Miner workers (archive photo)
Wednesday, February 10th marked the
second day of a strike launched by 800 workers of the Hashoni mine in the town
of Pabdana in Kerman Province, south-central Iran. These deprived miners have
not received their paychecks for the past 4 months and they have gone on strike
protesting the negligence seen in regime officials regarding their problems
making ends meet. Regardless of all the pressures they are enduring these
miners emphasize on continuing this strike until all their demands and rights
are addressed.
Despite harsh working conditions in the mines,
poverty has forced these miners to take on a second job to provide for their
families.
