UN experts* today condemned Iran’s intensifying repression of Iran International journalists worldwide, as well as the growing intimidation of their family members living in Iran – particularly since hostilities with Israel in June 2025.
“We are deeply concerned by credible threats to the lives and safety of 45 Iran International journalists and staff and 315 of their family members in seven countries: Belgium, Canada, Germany, Sweden, Türkiye, the United Kingdom and the United States,” the experts said.
Several UK-based journalists have reportedly required police protection, and some have been forced to move into safe houses or even relocate abroad. Reports suggest that journalists have been followed, had tracking tags attached to their cars, and their cars repeatedly broken into. Women journalists have faced threats of death and sexual violence on social media and instant messaging services, some receiving hundreds of messages a day.

I have to hand it to these people. They persevere.
This regime is the what scum call scum.
What would you think if an Iranaian was killed on U.S. soil for voicing their opinion or reporting what little is coming out of the blackout state.
What is Iran hiding?
