| No TrackBacks

The Iranian-American Physicists (IrAP) network group has released a letter condemning attacks on academics and students in Iran.

"During the last week, members of the Iran security forces in plain clothes have attacked universities and many student dormitories in Iran.

In one of the dormitories in Tehran, several students have been killed. In solidarity with the university professors and students in Iran, the Iranian-American Physicists (IrAP) network group board of directors wishes to express its outrage and condemn such violent attacks on the universities and student dormitories."
