Senator Lindsey Graham: Sponsor Imprisoned Iranian Physicians Now


Senator Lindsey Graham: Sponsor Imprisoned Iranian Physicians Now
The Issue
Doctors in Iran are being arrested for saving lives.
In recent months, multiple Iranian physicians have been detained, prosecuted, and threatened simply for treating injured civilians and upholding their medical oath. Some now face severe charges, solitary confinement, torture, and even the risk of execution.
We are Iranian physicians currently practicing in the Sultanate of Oman. As members of the medical community in the region, we cannot remain silent while our colleagues are imprisoned for fulfilling their ethical duty.
From Oman, a nation known for diplomacy and balance, we appeal for urgent protection of our colleagues.
Targeting doctors for providing medical care is a direct violation of medical neutrality and fundamental human rights. When medicine becomes a crime, no society is safe.
We call on Senator Lindsey Graham to:
Publicly sponsor detained Iranian physicians at risk
Issue a formal statement demanding their immediate protection
Call for their unconditional release
Urge international monitoring of their cases
Political sponsorship by a United States Senator sends a powerful message: the world is watching.
We stand not as political activists, but as physicians defending the universal principle that medicine must never be criminalized.
