Russian MFA alleges fabrication in 2010 Guardian report on Iranian death penalty case

Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova claims former Guardian journalist Saeed Kamali Dehghan admitted to fabricating a 2010 article regarding an Iranian woman sentenced to death. The report, which previously triggered significant international diplomatic pressure on Iran, is being highlighted by Moscow to challenge the credibility of Western media narratives. The veracity of the alleged admission and its broader implications for historical diplomatic discourse remain to be verified.
