TNT planted 70 meters around Chogha Zanbil
Following the letter "Oil exploration activities threaten Chogha Zanbil" and the first pictures I sent to Iranian.com, here are two other pictures [(1) (2)] showing very well how dangerously close to the 3,500 years old monument (chogha zanbil), the TNT explosives have been planted. These explosives (planted every at 70 meters) are scheduled to go off some time in the next few days. The possible earthquake, waves and dust created by these explosions can cause irrepabale damages to the historical monument and archaeolgical sites. Experts inside Iran are extremely worried about the situation, please help in anyway you can. -- Ali Nasri
