• Imprisoned Nobel Peace Prize winner Narges Mohammadi has been hospitalized after nearly nine weeks of illness.
• The Free Narges Coalition insists that hospital transfer alone won't address her severe health issues, urging for a medical furlough.
• Mohammadi, held in Iran's notorious Evin Prison, faces multiple health conditions, including a serious heart complication.
• Her imprisonment has been extended multiple times, most recently by six months following a protest against an execution.
• Despite repeated arrests, Mohammadi remains a prominent figure in human rights advocacy, earning the Nobel Prize in 2023.
