Footage from Hamedan water protests show people chanting slogans against the clerical establishment: "death to incompetent officials", "Iran won't prosper until [all] clergymen are buried", "death to [president] Raisi". #همدان_آب_ندارد#همدان
Amid an extended water cut and protests, footage from Iran's city of Hamedan shows a surgeon sanitising his hands with a pitcher of water. A man in the video says: "Whoever is in charge of water, whether it is president or governor, should do something." #همدان_آب_ندارد#همدان
