Nobel Laureate Mohammadi in ICU After Cardiac Crisis

- The Narges Mohammadi Foundation characterized the transfer as a "desperate, last-minute" action, noting authorities had previously refused to allow treatment by her specialized team in Tehran.
- Despite her condition, the Nobel laureate maintains her campaign for change in Iran, drawing international attention to conditions inside Evin Prison and the broader crackdown on dissent.
