Iran Detains Iranian-American Journalist Reza Valizadeh for Months Amid Rising Tensions
Nov 3, 2024, 02:00 PM
An Iranian-American journalist, Reza Valizadeh, who once worked for the U.S. government-funded broadcaster Radio Farda, is believed to have been detained by Iran for several months now. This development, confirmed by the U.S. State Department on Sunday, comes amid heightened tensions following an Israeli attack on Iran. Tehran has threatened to retaliate over the attack, further escalating the situation. The detention of Valizadeh has raised concerns about the safety of dual nationals and the potential for increased friction between the U.S. and Iran. The news coincides with the 45th anniversary of the American Embassy takeover and hostage crisis.
