The strike of over 5,000 workers in the Bafagh metal ore miners in Yazd Province entered its third week. The workers are protesting the allocation of the mine to the regime’s plundering factions, starting their strike on Sunday, May 18th.
A group of protesters are in a sit-in outside the mine’s entrance, concerned that this measure will lead to the expulsion of many workers, and the wages of those remaining will be lowered.
