Urgent call to the young people of Bushehr to help the victims of earthquake

Following the earthquake in Bushehr, Maryam Rajavi sent her condolences to the bereaved families and wished speedy recovery of the injured. She called on people especially youth of Bushehr and neighboring provinces to immediately come to the rescue of people who are under the rubble.
She pointed out that before any aid, the regime uses its repressive forces to control and repress people and victims of the earthquake and said: As previously experienced, it is people’s aids that has been effective in saving the lives of those under rubble and in helping the injured and the homeless survivors.

The occurrence of the earthquake with its epicenter 70 kilometers away from the Bushehr nuclear power plant once again highlights the great danger and risk of disaster these facilities pose to the lives of millions of people in southern Iranian provinces and neighboring countries.
On Tuesday afternoon of April 9th, eight consecutive earthquakes struck the port of Bushehr and nearby cities. The mullahs’ regime has cut off the mobile networks in the area to prevent spread of the news on true casualties and damages. According to the news received, many villages in the region have been destroyed and due to lack of immediate aid from the government, the number of casualties and death is on the rise.
