EAST KURDISTAN, — The life of Kurdish workers toiling on the artificial borders of Kurdistan are going through a perilous situation as many of them are killed or seriously injured each year by the direct shot of Iranian soldiers.
According to our correspondents two groups of Kurdish workers came under the gunfire of the Iranian Border Guards in two different places costing the lives of two and injuring another two badly.
A bunch of workers were shot by the Iranian soldiers at 11:00 pm on 22nd April in between Piranshar and Shino city. In the event one worker lost his life and his brother was severely injured. The soldiers fired on them although they had not had any goods.
The other group of workers fell in the ambush of the soldiers around Mirawe village near Shino city and a young Kurds named as Ferdin lost his life while his brother (Behruz) was seriously injured.
It is being reported that Mr Ferdin was married only two weeks ago.
Due to lack of employment in Iran especially in Kurdish area many Kurds are working on the pseudo-borders of Kurdistan undertaking such a dangerous task to make a living for their family.
