4 environmental activists in Iran are set to be released following a pardon from Ayatollah Ali Khamenei during Ramadan.
Iran is set to release four environmental activists, who were jailed on security charges, after more than six years in prison. The activists, arrested on suspicion of espionage for foreign governments, will be freed following a pardon from Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has pardoned over 2,000 inmates to mark the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Their release date is expected to be "in the coming days", according to their lawyer Hojjat Kermani.
