American woman detained in Iran since 2024 released, Trump says
Jared Genser said Dena Karari is safe and traveling home after Iran’s release, while U.S. officials tracked at least six detained Americans.
- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump announced that American citizen Dena Karari was released from Iran, where she had been held since December 2024 and is now safely out of the country.
- According to lawyer Jared Genser, Karari was never physically imprisoned but faced a "coercive exit ban" and dozens of interrogations by the Intelligence Ministry regarding her work with the Children of Mehr Foundation.
- Genser stated the foundation helped impoverished children with private donations and Treasury Department OFAC authorization; he described the charges as bogus, noting Karari suffered "enormous physical and psychological hardship."
- Trump characterized the release as a "gesture of Goodwill" by Iran, yet Washington continues military pressure, having recently resumed a naval blockade and conducted new strikes against targets.
- At least five other Americans remain held in Iran, including Reza Valizadeh and Kamran Hekmati, as prisoner cases remain a complex component of US-Iranian diplomacy amid renewed Middle East hostilities.
