Iran. The health of the detained journalist on hunger strike is "stable"

a His brother Hassan also tweeted that his parents visited him this afternoon and that his “general condition [era] Good”.

Hassan tweeted a picture of Hussein, published by the justice system, showing him in a hospital bed.

The Judicial Authority, Mizan, said, “The decision to send him to a hospital outside the prison on Sunday came to prevent any possible deterioration in his health and to allow him to receive further treatment.”

Mizan added that “Runagi’s general condition is stable and he will be discharged from the hospital soon,” denying “his physical injury”, and that “his heart stopped and he had to be resuscitated when he arrived at the hospital.”

Ronaghi, a contributor to several foreign newspapers, including the Wall Street Journal, was arrested on September 24 after criticizing the crackdown on protests over the Mahsa Amini killing.

The activist, who is 37 and suffers from kidney problems, began a hunger strike shortly after his arrest, according to his family.

The United States has also expressed concern about the case, with National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan saying that “the torture and abuse of political prisoners like Ronaghi must stop.”

The director of the Iranian NGO for human rights, Mahmoud Amiri Moghadam, said Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Iranian leaders are responsible for Ronaghi’s health.

He pointed out that “Hussain Ronaghi’s life is in great danger. We ask the international community to do everything in its power to save his life and the lives of other detainees who are currently at risk.”
