Narges Foundation Warns of Critical Health Condition for Narges Mohammadi in Zanjan Prison
The Narges Foundation has issued an urgent report detailing the critical health deterioration of Nobel Peace Prize laureate Narges Mohammadi, currently detained in Zanjan Central Prison. Now on her 124th day of imprisonment, Mohammadi reportedly suffered a heart attack on March 25 and remains unconscious for over an hour, exacerbating her existing heart conditions and severe symptoms like headaches and vision loss.
