Iran has reportedly granted amnesty to four environmentalists jailed for several years on bogus charges. They include Sam Rajabi and Niloufar Bayani. Reports say they will be released soon. They shouldn’t have been jailed in the first place.

I welcome the announcement of the release of 4 environmental conservationists - including our former UN Environment Programme colleague #NiloufarBayani - who have been imprisoned in Iran. Environmental stewardship is critical to protect people and planet. My statement: unep.org/news-and-stori…

There must be an immediate ceasefire, the unconditional release of all hostages, and an end to the senseless killing of children.

We are excited to announce that from now on our Iran Revolution Monitor will be available for free. This is meant as a public service for everyone deeply concerned about Iran’s present and future, making our knowledge and insights accessible to a broader audience.
