  • Bahareh Hedayat's courage and resilience are truly inspiring. Her 13-day hunger strike, despite the immense personal risk, highlights the dire human rights issues in Iran and the plight of political prisoners. Her actions not only draw attention to the suspicious death of Javad Rouhi and the unjust imprisonment of journalists Nilofar Hamedi and Elaheh Mohammadi but also symbolize the broader struggle for freedom and justice. Her bravery in the face of such adversity serves as a powerful reminder of the ongoing fight for human rights and the strength of the Iranian women's resistance movement.
