Burning the Umm Al-Debs forest as a security target.
After using all types of criminal ways of repression and denial and destroying the environment and nature, hunger and thirst and even drowning the Ahwazi people’s houses and their farms by opening the dam by the occupier, today they started a new level of crime and that by burning the farms and the forest those which the water of dam did not reach to drown them to enhance the process of migrating people from the Arabic cities and specially those which are closer to Iraq, a 2000 Km line which became a military zone.
Last thing that the occupier have done after flooding hundreds thousand kilometre square of the farms and houses in Ahwazi land by opening the dam, they have started to put on fire the Umm Al-Debs forests on the last day when they ended with the Revolutionary Guards military combat in the forest which lasted ten days.
Umm Al-Debs forests are known with its beauty and its clear and clean nature destroyed by a wide air pollutions made by the criminal regime to dry the revers and the marshes and by producing destructions in Ahwaz which caused the air pollutions and poisons in the air by spreading different kinds of harmful and dangerous and poisoned chemicals.
The space of Umm Al-Debs which ruled the fire on that can be counted around 100 hectars located most of this space in the middle of the residencial area like Khasraj, Bait Ebrich, Al-Dehemi, and Al-Abdallah near the (Al-Chadhabah) which it considered and the grounds around it as fertile to provide good environments for their livestock as well as agricultures, and it also contains different kinds of important wiled animals and some of them are rare kinds of dears, where most of Ahwazi people and Arab people from different countries come to that place for hunting dears and birds called Habar.
Interestingly that the fire has suppressed by sons of the neighbour villages by everything they possessed and were able to do so, and even though they asked for help from the fire stations which belong to the cities of Al-khafajiah and Busaiteen and the help did not arrive to the forest only after six hours of the request for the help, where the residents of the area managed to extinguish the fire before an hour of attending the fire brigade, but the fire brigade men stood up beside the journalist and took pictures to reply the Ahwazi people and tell them that we are doing our duty though they have refused to attend quick under the pretext of the existence of agricultural fires in other places first!?.
Anyways, people of the city accuse the revolutionary guards to put up the forest on fire and their evidence to that is their military combat done by the guards inside the forest and ended it up by burning the forest since on of the guards said: the forest is an proper place for the Ahwazi resistance to practice and their gathering activities and it have been said that they have practiced their to know more about each and every corner of it to be prepaired for any sudden attacks from the Ahwazi resistance.
