During yesterday's popular uprising in Bukan, government forces shot and killed Mustafa Shabani, Ghafur Moludi, Hajar MamKhosravi, Hiwa Jan Jan, and Amjad Anayati. Additionally, one of the injured demonstrators, Milad Marufi, passed away today.

According to the reports received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, Mustafa Shabani, Ghafur Moludi, Hajar MamKhosravi, Hiwa Jan Jan, and Amjad Anayati were among five citizens of Bukan who were killed by direct fire from the forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran on Thursday, November 17, 2022.

According to reliable sources, the government forces abducted Kamil and Kausar Shabani last night in Bukan. They are the brother and sister of Mustafa Shabani. Mustafa was shot dead yesterday in Bukan's Majburabad neighborhood. These forces prevented people from going to the Shabani family's home and prevented them from holding the funeral service in the mosque.

Ghafur Moludi's burial ceremony was held on Friday in Sahulan village in the presence of a large number of people. Ghafur Moludi was married and the father of three children.

On the other hand, 23-year-old Milad Marufi, who was seriously injured yesterday by direct fire from government forces, died today due to the severity of his injuries.

The IRI's repressive forces have been shooting directly at Kurdish protestors and using fatal weapons more frequently this week. Additionally, under the authorities' orders, the repression forces have started shooting protestors in the head.

It is worth mentioning that during the popular resistance in Bukan yesterday and in legitimate defense against the indescribable violence of the government forces, two members of the IRGC, named Mehdi Isnaashari and Rahim Sobhani, were killed.
