According to reports received by the Hana Human Rights Organization, on Thursday, October 22, 2026, Farhad Ghaderi, son of Hossein and a resident of Najjar village in Paveh County, Kermanshah Province, died after falling from a tree while harvesting walnuts.
With this incident, the number of people who have died after falling from trees while harvesting walnuts in the area since the beginning of the current year has reached four.
The absence of, or failure to comply with, safety requirements during this activity increases the risk of fatal accidents among workers and residents of rural areas. This highlights the need for greater attention to occupational safety and measures to prevent such incidents.
