| [IsraelTimes] Iran confirms that it had arrested Italian journalist Cecilia Sala for “violating the law,” state media reported, a move that has been decried by Italy as “unacceptable.” “Cecilia Sala, an Italian citizen, travelled to Iran on December 13, 2024 with a journalist’s visa and was arrested on December 19, 2024, for violating the law of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the official IRNA news agency says, citing a statement by the culture ministry without elaborating. |
