The Iranian regime fears that the advent of Eid al-Adha could be used by Ahwazi Arabs to protest against the regime. Eid has traditionally been a time for Arabs to assert their distinct culture and call for political rights, including the right to self-determination. Past protests have been put down with brutal force by the security services. This year, public prayer attendance is being strictly controlled and arrests are being made to intimidate and pre-empt Ahwazi protests.
