Nobel Peace Prize winner Narges Mohammadi has been arrested in Mashhad, Iran, amid growing concerns over intensified government crackdowns. Mohammadi, a prominent advocate for democracy and human rights, had recently spoken out against increased repression following the June ceasefire with Israel. She highlighted the pervasive surveillance, censorship, and threats faced by citizens in a recent article and communicated warnings from authorities to the Nobel Committee. Despite repeated detentions and harsh sentences, Mohammadi has remained defiant, continuing her activism and refusing to comply with restrictive mandates.
