So the question is why\nthis current course of raining has turned to flash floods nationwide ruining\npeople\u2019s lives and creating a national catastrophe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since\nflood is one of the most common natural disasters, there have been many delving\ninto it, and many countries allocate a proper amount of resources to control\nit. They have also taken measures to lessen their devastating effects.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But in Iran under the rule of the corrupt despotic regime of the\nmullahs, plundering of natural resources, especially forests and pastures and\nruining the natural routes of water streams and turning them into roads or\nrailways to benefit trades, by mostly the IRGC elements, has turned a few days\nrain into devastating flash floods all over the country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Iran flash floods; causes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few\ndays ago, shortly after precipitations and winds, flash floods in Iran\nsurprised people in many provinces and led to the loss of many lives and\ndamages; particularly in the highlands and mountainous regions. But the\nquestion is about the dimensions of damages despite the progress of meteorology\nknowledge and increasing the capability of forecasting the weather condition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of\nthe main causes of floods in Iran is the destruction of nature by the\nRevolutionary Guards (IRGC) and the government-affiliated bodies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/twitter.com\/4freedominiran2\/status\/1110204652589670400\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The <a href=\"https:\/\/irannewswire.org\/floods-ravage-northern-iran-on-nowruz-holiday\/\">most important causes of recent Iran flash floods<\/a> are as follow:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-The destruction of 30% of forests and 90%\nof vegetation and pastures which controlled the water flow in rainy days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Transforming the natural lands to\nagricultural lands and building luxurious villas on them, to the benefit of the\nregime\u2019s elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2013 Nonstandard constructions on the riverbeds\nand riparian zones; such as the North Highway that made fundamental changes to\nits regional ecosystem.
