Holy fucking shit. Iran is all worried about getting its hands on some nuclear weapons when its biggest city is dealing with the biggest rats ever seen.

Tehran, the capital of Iran, is battling an invasion of "genetically mutated" giant rats.

Iran has sent in sniper teams to clear Tehran's streets from the massive rodents weighting up to five kilos plaguing 26 district of the Iranian capital, the city's environmental agency said.

"They seem to have had a genetic mutation, probably as a result of radiations and the chemical used on them," Ismail Kahram, Teheran city council environment adviser and university professor Ismail Kahram told Qudsonline.ir.

"They are now bigger and look different. These are changes that normally take millions of years of evolution. They have jumped from 60 grams to five kilos, and cats are now smaller than them."

The "mutated rats" have been running rampant in the capital, as cats are scared off by their giant size and traditional poison appear to have no effect on them.

Don't we get our cats from Persia? These noble and ancient creatures are refusing to fuck with these rats? Get your priorities in order, Iran. You need more than snipers; you need to throw the whole Revolutionary Guard into this war or wars.
