Bulldozers demolish homes of Baha'is in Iranian village


The homes of 50 Baha'i families in Ivel, Mazandaran were demolished as part of an official action by the government to expel them from the region. The families were blocked from the village while at least four front-end loaders leveled the houses. This is just the latest development of actions to target the Baha'is.
"They're being forbidden to associate with Muslims, or even offer service to their friends and neighbours," said Diane Ala'i, representative of the Baha'i International Community to the United Nations in Geneva.
Images of the homes and maps can be found linked to the article.
