A bomb exploded at Chamran University in Ahwaz on Tuesday, according to Al-Arabiyeh TV. Chamran University has been a source of controversy for many Ahwazi Arabs. Although 75 per cent of Ahwaz City is Arab, the proportion of Arab university students is little more than 6 per cent. This ratio has remained the same over the past two decades due to discriminatory practices in higher education.
