On the morning of Saturday, July 25 a group of nurses of Tehran’s Ruzbe Hospital went on strike. These nurses numbered 100 in total. They rallied in the hospital’s courtyard and made their strike and protests very public.
In the city of Yasuj (south Iran) nurses were seen continuing their protests.
“We are a number of nurses who passed our exams last year. However, five months later we have yet to receive any of our paychecks or premiums,” a nurse said. (NCRI Women’s Committee – July 25, 2015)
