UN Experts Urge Iran to Halt Killings of Kulbars and Fuel Porters

Four UN human rights experts issued a joint statement on September 23 demanding Iran immediately stop the killing of kulbars (border porters) and fuel porters, citing a pattern of lethal force by security forces. The statement follows documented incidents along Iran's borders, though details of specific cases remain unverified. This highlights ongoing human rights abuses in border regions, potentially affecting regional stability and international scrutiny.
