Season 16 Episode 14: Iran and the Water Crisis

In 2021, anti-government protests took place across Iran. They were triggered by a severe water shortage in the south of the country, in a province called Khuzestan. Once lush and green, rivers are now running dry, crops are failing and tap water is scarce. So where has the water gone? BBC Persian's Siavash Ardalan investigates what is behind the shortage.
