The martyrdom of Aref al-Sharifawi from the city of Koura-Ahwaz

According to the news circulating on social media tools, the martyrdom of Aref Al-Sharifawi occurred one day after the morning of Eid 04/21/2023

The Al-Ahwazi citizen was subjected to a number of gunshots from the Iranian police after he was pursued by them. It is mentioned that the martyr was active in "advocacy and patriotic" matters, which made the Iranian government commit its heinous crime by martyrdom, may God have mercy on him.

Therefore, we call on the international community and the International Criminal Court to stand with the oppressed Ahwazis and to put pressure on Iran to stop its criminal machinery and to stop killing the people of Ahwazi without any crime.

President of the Ahwazi Human Rights Association
