Women Journalists Covering Mahsa Amini Protests in Iran

Since the protests started over Mahsa Amini’s death, at least 20 women journalists have been arrested and most of them covering protests on the ground have been targeted beyond arrests. The CFWIJ has been monitoring the situation on the ground as well as journalists facing intimidation and threats outside of the country. Find below a list of select women journalists who have been covering the protests in the field.
