Narges Mohammadi, the Iranian Nobel Peace Prize winner, has moved from prison to a hospital following “a severe decline in her health,” according to a statement from her foundation.
Mohammadi’s relatives and advocates have spent weeks urging the Iranian government to permit her to get immediate medical attention. Up until Friday, it seemed that these appeals had gone unnoticed.
The Narges Foundation reported that Mohammadi has been moved from the Zanjan prison to a nearby hospital in Zanjan province, Iran. The foundation announced in February that Mohammadi had gone on hunger strike.
In March, it reported that Mohammadi’s health was critically deteriorating, he had experienced a suspected heart attack, and was refused specialized medical treatment.
Iran’s notable human rights advocate, Mohammadi received the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize for “her struggle against the subjugation of women in Iran and her efforts to advance human rights and liberty for everyone.”
