Baha’i UN envoy: Iran carrying out ’systematic onslaught‘ against minority community – Iranian authorities arrest dozens of members of religious group, charging some with spying for Israel; also raid village and destroy homes | Timesofisrael
The lead UN representative for the Baha’i religious group said Wednesday that Iran is carrying out a “systematic onslaught” against its members in the country, after Iranian authorities arrested prominent leaders of the minority community and raided one of its villages.
Iran has long discriminated against the Baha’i, the country’s largest non-Muslim minority, but has recently stepped up its persecution of the group for reasons that are still unclear. The Baha’i faith began in Iran and its world headquarters are in Israel.
