More than 3000 workers in the Meshkinshahr city of Northwest Iran went on strike to protest that the factory had not paid 7 months' arrears.

Strike workers blocked the motorway, and the road has been blocked for two days.

To support workers' action, workers in the Alborz tire factory shut down on Tuesday.

Like most factories in Iran, Sabalan factories are also privatized.

But the new management is basically a relative or confidant of the Mullah regime.

Usually, they were former Sri Lankan revolutionary guards and became businessmen overnight.

Last year, hundreds of factories went on strike, demanding payment of arrears of wages.

Over the past 10 years, most factories in Iran have been privatized by the Mullah regime, and Iran workers have been subjected to more severe crackdown.

The new management is designated by the government, and they do not provide adequate protection for workers and their families. Therefore, workers become the most vulnerable groups of the masses.
