Black rain is falling in Iran after strikes on oil facilities. Scientists warn of long-term consequences

‚The World Health Organization (WHO) issued a warning Tuesday about toxic pollutants in the air after the Saturday strikes on four oil storage facilities and an oil production transfer centre sparked pillars of flames and thick, black clouds that later produced black, oily rain.

Residents in the city of 10 million reported having trouble breathing and said they experienced dizziness and burning sensations as the rain, mixed with chemicals from burning oil, fell from the sky.

The UN health agency says it has received multiple reports of black rain since the attacks, which came just over a week into the U.S.-Israeli war against Iran, and supports Iran's advisory urging people to remain indoors.

The Iranian Red Crescent Society warned that the rain can cause serious lung damage and chemical burns to the skin…..‘

Of all the illegal, never tested before on humans weaponry used by the US, the deadliest was #AgentOrange. It's a #toxic chemical herbicide/defoliant. #USTerrorists called their AOcampaign 1962-1971, #OperationRanchHand. Their purpose was to clear Vietnam’s forest cover & farms which hid/fed #VietCong resistance forces.

80 million litres were sprayed over 26,000 villages across 3.06 million hectares. Operation Ranch Hand not only defoliated vegetation & crops, but pushed numerous animal species to extinction & caused skin rashes, cancer & birth-defects down multiple generations(we're in our 4th generation of victims) in Vietnamese/Laotian/Cambodian peoples - all were exposed to the toxic sprays.

The US told their own military, who were foolish enough to trust their criminal government, that AO was safe to handle. Many US military personnel still live with lifelong effects from handling/being in close contact with AO. Unlike us, the civilian invasion survivors - US military people actually got help. We were ignored, repeatedly by the evil US government. The US government kept telling us there's no proof that their use of Agent Orange had serious bad human effects. Yet, they admitted it had effect on their military personnel. We aren't humans to US government then, nor now. They're still denying AO effects on Vietnamese folks & never paid reparations for it!

This is only part of what #TerroristUSA did to our peoples!

Evil USA used us as a fucking war munitions lab. The exact same way Zionazis used Gaza as a testing lab.

WAKE THE FUCK UP. USA NEVER STOPPED TERRORISM WAR CRIMES!
